Insert three irrational numbers between 2√3 and 2√5, and arrange in descending order.
Solution:
Take the square
(2√3)2 = 12 and (2√5)2 = 20
So the number 13, 15, 18 lie between 12 and 20 between (√12)2 and (√20)2
√13, √15, √18 lie between 2√3 and 2√5
Therefore, three irrational numbers between
2√3 and 2√5 are √13, √15, √18 or √13, √15 and 3√2.
Here
√20 ˃ √18 ˃ √15 ˃ √13 ˃ √12 or 2√5 ˃ 3√2 ˃ √15 ˃ √13 ˃ 2√3
Therefore, the descending order: 2√5, 3√2, √15, √13 and 2√3
