(2 + \sqrt{3}) \in Q \Leftrightarrow \sqrt{3} \in Q

\sqrt{3} = \frac{a}{b}, a \land b = 1

\Rightarrow 3 b^{2} = a^{2} \dots . 1 \Rightarrow 3 ∣ a \Rightarrow a = 3 s

1 \Leftrightarrow b^{2} = 3 s^{2} \Rightarrow 3 ∣ b \dots 2

(1) & (2) \Rightarrow 3 ∣ a \land b = 1 a b s u r d \Rightarrow \sqrt{3} \notin Q

(2) \frac{\sqrt{3} - 2}{3} = \frac{a}{b} \Rightarrow \sqrt{3} = \frac{3 a + 2 b}{b} \in Q a b s u r d p r e v i o u s p r o o f

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} - 5} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + 5}{- 21} \in Q \Rightarrow \sqrt{3} \in Q a b s u r d
