A. Irrational Numbers
the square root of 25 is 5
25 is a perfect square, it mean that a number squared is that number like 9,25,36 are perfect squares.
25 is a Rational number.
it is a whole number for it doesn't have a decimal.
and any positive or negative number is an integer.

First calculate square root of 25. It is 5 because 5 squared is 25.

So 5 is not an irrational number because it can be put into a fraction, 5/1. An irrational number like pi, cannot be put into a fraction.

A. Irrational Numbers

Hope this helps :)
