Find whether the following statements are true or false:Irrational numbers cannot be represented by points on the number line.
To do:
We have to find whether the given statement is true or false.
Solution:
Real Numbers:
Rational numbers and irrational numbers together are called real numbers.
Every rational number and an irrational number corresponds to a point on the number line.
Together, those points fill up the number line. The number line corresponds to the set of all real numbers.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
