Q. Which of the following is an irrational number?Choices:(A)π(B)4(C)0(D)5
Definition of Irrational Number: An irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction - that is, the decimal goes on forever without repeating. Let's evaluate each choice to determine if it is irrational.
Evaluation of Choice (A): Choice (A) is π. Pi (π) is known to be an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a fraction and its decimal representation is non-terminating and non-repeating.
Evaluation of Choice (B): Choice (B) is 4. The number 4 is a whole number and can be expressed as a fraction (14), so it is not an irrational number.
Evaluation of Choice (C): Choice (C) is 0. The number 0 can also be expressed as a fraction (0/1), so it is not an irrational number.
Evaluation of Choice (D): Choice (D) is 5. The number 5 is another whole number and can be expressed as a fraction (15), so it is not an irrational number.
