Answer:

So the statement:

"The product of two irrational numbers is rational." is false.

Explanation:

The product of two irrationals can be irrational or rational.

Example:


√(2) \cdot √(2)=2


√(2) is irrational but when you multiply it to itself the output is rational.

Example:


√(2) \cdot √(3)=√(6)


√(2) \text{ and } √(3) are irrational and when you multiply them you get an irrational answer of
√(6).

So the statement:

"The product of two irrational numbers is rational." is false.
