Prove that the product of 2π

and 34
is an irrational number. Find the product and explain why the value is irrational. Explain your reasoning in 1–2 sentences

1 answer

The product of \(2\pi\) and \(34\) is given by:

\[ 2\pi \times 34 = 68\pi. \]

Since \(\pi\) is an irrational number, and the product of a non-zero rational number (68, here) and an irrational number (\(\pi\)) is also irrational, it follows that \(68\pi\) is irrational. Thus, \(2\pi \times 34 = 68\pi\) is irrational.
