The number of rational points on the line joining `(sqrt(5), 3)` and `(3, sqrt(3))` is

A

0

B

1

C

2

D

infinite

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Slope of line `= (sqrt(3)-3)/(3-sqrt(5))`
Clearly numerator and denominator have different irrational number. So, there will be no rational point on the line.
