  2. Customarily, the set of irrational numbers is expressed as the set of all real numbers "minus" the set of rational numbers, which can be denoted by either of the following, which are equivalent: $\mathbb R \setminus \mathbb Q$, where the backward slash denotes "set minus". $\mathbb R - \mathbb Q,\;$ where we read the set of reals, "minus" the ...

    The symbols for Complex Numbers of the form a + bi a + b i where a, b ∈ R a, b ∈ R the symbol is C C. There is no universal symbol for the purely imaginary numbers. Many would consider I I or iR i R acceptable. I would. Note: R = {a + 0 ∗ i} ⊊C R = {a + 0 ∗ i} ⊊ C. (The real numbers are a proper subset of the complex numbers.)

    $\begingroup$ One can easily construct numbers that are irrational if and only if the Goldbach conjecture is true, for example. Thus an (ir)rationality proof can be arbitrarily complicated. $\endgroup$

  6. Systematic way to represent any irrational number

    math.stackexchange.com/.../systematic-way-to-represent-any-irrational-number

    Show activity on this post. Every irrational number has a single unique decimal expansion, in a straightforward way. There is a non-negative integer and a sequence of decimal digits for which. x = 10. x = ∑ ≤ 10. Every irrational number has a single unique continued fraction expansion: there is a sequence of positive integers for which.

  7. Let one irrational no. be 0.989889888 and other irrational no. be 0.121221222. Then 0.989889888+0.121221222=1.1111111 bar. Proof of sum of two irrational no. is irrational: Let one irrational no. be 1.4142135.... and other ben1.7350208.... If we add both of them we get 3.14626436..... which is irrational

  8. soft question - Is zero irrational? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/522933/is-zero-irrational

    0 0 -the-rational-number: a rational number is an integer divided by another, so 0r =0i/1i 0 r = 0 i / 1 i. From this point of view, there is nothing circular about 0 = 0/1 0 = 0 / 1, because we're actually just using the same symbol to refer to two very similar objects, one an integer and one a rational number. Share.

  9. Can you raise a number to an irrational exponent?

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/55068

    But, intuitively, these numbers are getting closer and closer to something, and we define $3^{\sqrt{2}}$ to be that something. We can do a partial informal verification of the "getting closer and closer" part in this case, by using a calculator.

    122. Yes, it can, $$ e^ {\log 2} = 2 $$. Summary of edits: If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are algebraic and irrational, then $\alpha^\beta$ is not only irrational but transcendental. Looking at your other question, it seems worth discussing what happens with square roots, cube roots, algebraic numbers in general.

  11. Can someone point me to a proof that the set of irrational numbers is uncountable? I know how to show that the set $\\mathbb{Q}$ of rational numbers is countable, but how would you show that the
