### Theory:

The decimal expansion of an irrational number is non-terminating and non-recurring. Conversely, the decimal expansion of a number is non-terminating and non-recurring is an irrational number.
Example:
Many square roots and cube roots are irrational numbers.

Let us find the square root of $\sqrt{5}$.

Thus, the decimal expansion of $\sqrt{5}$ have non-terminating and non-recurring decimals.

It goes like $\sqrt{5}=2.2360...$

$\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{3}\phantom{\rule{0.147em}{0ex}}=1.7320508075...\\ \\ \sqrt{5}\phantom{\rule{0.147em}{0ex}}=2.2360679774...\phantom{\rule{0.147em}{0ex}}\\ \\ \sqrt[3]{3}=1.4422495707...\end{array}$
