Answer:

sqrt21 is real and irrational

Explanation:

The other answers are a repeating decimal (rational), a terminating decimal (rational) and a perfect square (an integer--so also rational)

They are all real. Numbers that are not real have the imaginary number, i, in them or a square root of a negative number.
