Explain the main differences among integers‚ rational numbers‚ real numbers‚ and irrational numbers. Integers are the natural numbers of (0‚ 1‚2‚3‚4….)and the negative non zero numbers of (-1‚-2‚-3‚-4….)and so forth. Integers are numbers without a fractional or decimal component. Example: 23‚ 5‚ and -567 are integers‚ 8.45‚ 5½‚ and √2 are not integers. Integers are any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers.

Pythagoreans who were scared and frantic by the thought of an irrational number. Pythagoras’ follower most likely used a geometrical proof when he was first discovering the irrationality of the square root of two. This proof uses Pythagoras’ theorem that in a right triangle‚ a2 + b2 = c2 . If a=1‚ and b=1 then 2= c2. Then c=√2 and then you must find c. However there is no rational number which satisfies this requirement. The new idea of irrational numbers changed Ancient Greek mathematics because it created
