The given three numbers are 5,8,24.

We have to use four operations (Adding, Subtracting,multiplication, division, square, square root, cube, cube root) out of these operation to make the result an irrational number.

$1. \sqrt{\frac{24}{8}} + 5=\sqrt{3}+5,\\\\2. \sqrt{\frac{24}{8}} - 5=\sqrt{3} -5 \\\\ 3.\sqrt{\frac{24 \times 5}{8}}=\sqrt{15} \\\\ 4. (5 \times 8 \times 24)^\frac{1}{3}$

There are many more examples that you can write.

Keep in mind

1. Sum of Rational and irrational is always irrational.

2. Difference of rational and irrational is always irrational.

As none of the 5,8,24 is a perfect square , nor addition of any two results in a perfect square, so square root of their addition or subtraction or multiplication results in an irrational number.

Similarly ,apart from 8, none of 5,24 is a perfect cube.So if you add or subtract any number from 8 and take their cube root or square root ,results in an irrational number.

The sum of rational and irrational numbers is irrational number. If we add, subtract, divide the rational and irrational numbers the result will be an irrational number.

Further explanation:

Given:

The numbers are , and 24.

Explanation:

Rational numbers are those numbers than can be written as a fraction. The decimal expansion of the rational number is terminating.

${\text{Fraction}} = \dfrac{p}{q}$

Here, and are the integers. is numerator of the fraction and is denominator of the fraction.

Irrational numbers are those numbers that cannot be written in fraction. The decimal expansion of the irrational numbers is non-terminating or recurring.

The sum of rational and irrational numbers is irrational number. If we add, subtract, divide the rational and irrational numbers the result will be an irrational number.

1. $8 \times \sqrt5 + 24$

Here, 8 is a rational number, $\sqrt 5$ is an irrational number and 24 is a rational number.

The result is the irrational number.

2. $\sqrt {\dfrac{8}{5}}- \sqrt {24}$

The result will be an irrational number as $\sqrt {\dfrac{8}{5}}$ is an irrational number. So the sum of $\sqrt {\dfrac{8}{5}}$ and $\sqrt {24}$ will be irrational.

where did you get them? if you picked from the grass, is is probably poisonous.

so the perpendicular line goes through the given pointyou would get a perpendicular line at some random location

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
