Answer:

The correct option is;

False

Explanation:

An imaginary number is also known as a imaginary part of a complex number is a real number that has a factor of √(-1)

Rational numbers are numbers that can be put in the form of the ratio of two integers (real numbers), forming a simple fraction such as 1/2, or 3/7

Irrational numbers are the subset of real numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two numbers such as π, √2, Eulers number, e, the golden ratio, φ

Therefore, rational numbers and irrational numbers are real numbers not imaginary numbers.
