Step-by-step explanation

The question wants us to select the answer choice that shows the set of irrational numbers that is not closed under the addition.

Form the options given


\begin{gathered} \pi+(-\pi)=0 \\ is\text{ not closed} \end{gathered}

Because,


\begin{gathered} \pi\text{ is an irrational number} \\ But\text{ 0 is a rational number} \end{gathered}

Thus the answer is the first option


\pi+(-\pi)=0
