ANSWER.


The correct answer is Option A


EXPLANATION.


The real number


√(35)=5.916079783


to 9 decimal places.


You can see that the decimals are not repeating, neither will they terminate.



Therefore the real number
√(35) is irrational because, the decimal does not terminate or repeat


Also note that,



√(35)=√(5) * √(7) .


That is,


√(35) is a product of two irrational numbers, which still gives an irrational number.
