If (\sqrt{8}) is considered instead of (\sqrt{2}), what is the best short reason that (\sqrt{8}) is irrational?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}), and multiplying irrational (\sqrt{2}) by nonzero rational (2) gives an irrational number

Step 1: (\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{4\cdot2}=2\sqrt{2}). Step 2: (\sqrt{2}) is irrational and (2) is a nonzero rational number, so (2\sqrt{2}) remains irrational. Step 3: Separate perfect-square factors while simplifying roots.
