You don't!! It makes no difference who it is ~ you cannot win an argument with someone who is irrational. But why do you need to win? It's not a competition! Maybe she becomes irrational because you keep arguing. You said it yourself ~ you want to "win". I have eight siblings and if we have a conflict ~ we work it out. It's not a matter of winning. This does not mean that you don't stand by your convictions. It's a simple matter of compromise and you don't always have to agree. If I were you, the first thing I would do is find out WHY your sister is irrational. Maybe your idea of irrational is not the same as hers. She may just be a lot more emotional. I have to deal with seven brothers and I am sure there have been many occasions when they have thought my behavior "irrational", when in truth I was just being a girl! Is this a brother or a sister asking the question? Just remember the "Mars and Venus" theory applies to siblings too. Siblings are incredibly precious and in a reasonable family, any argument can be worked out. LISTEN to her and lose the attitude that it is a "competition" you need to win. Speak rationally to her and if she becomes irrational, walk away. Come back when she is more receptive. No matter what her faults are, accept her as she is. That's the real beauty of having siblings. You can be yourself ~ completely because they will love you no matter what...

The best way to really wins is by letting them think they won and say something mature and respectful that they'll say: Wow my brother or my sister is much more mature than I am.

Then they stop being so irrational.

How do you show irrational number r uncountable?

To show that the set of irrational numbers is uncountable, you can use Cantor's diagonal argument. First, assume that the set of irrational numbers is countable and list them in a sequence. By constructing a new number that differs from each listed irrational number at a specific decimal place, you can demonstrate that this new number is also irrational and not in the original list, leading to a contradiction. Thus, the set of irrational numbers must be uncountable.
