Yes. The domain and range can include irrational numbers.


What is the exact area of a circle with a diameter of 25 m?

The exact area is 625*pi. Since pi is an irrational number, any exact answer must include pi and may not contain a decimal (or rational) approximation of pi.

Can we include irrational numbers in the set of positive numbers?

Yes, any positive number is a number that doesn't have a (-) behind it (-20; -23.67; -45.45454...), and is not zero (0). Any repeating number (see 3rd negative example) is irrational, no matter what its sign. Irrational numbers also include numbers (decimals, specifically) that don't repeat, but don't stop. Numbers that don't terminate include pi. Pi, as it is, is proof of a positive irrational number.

Why the product of nonzero rational number and a rational number is an irrational?

Actually the product of a nonzero rational number and another rational number will always be rational.The product of a nonzero rational number and an IRrational number will always be irrational. (You have to include the "nonzero" caveat because zero times an irrational number is zero, which is rational)


Is fraction the densest subset of real numbers?

No. Fractions do not include irrational numbers. And although there are an infinite number of both rationals and irrationals, there are far more irrational numbers than rationals.

Is an irrational number a real number?

An irrational number is any real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers.So yes, an irrational number IS a real number.There is also a set of numbers called transcendental numbers, which includes both real and complex/imaginary numbers. Of this set, all the real numbers are irrational numbers.


What are non recurring irrational numbers?

All irrational numbers are non-recurring. If a number is recurring, it is rational. Examples of irrational numbers include the square root of 2, most square roots, most cubic roots, most 4th. roots, etc., pi, e, and most calculations involving irrational numbers.
