Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to find the distance \( AB \) given the points \( A(3,5) \) and \( B \), which is equidistant from the point \( H(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{5}) \) and has rational coordinates.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify the points and their coordinates**:
- Point \( A \) has coordinates \( (3, 5) \).
- Point \( H \) has coordinates \( (\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{5}) \).
- Let the coordinates of point \( B \) be \( (α, β) \), where \( α \) and \( β \) are rational numbers.

2. **Use the distance formula**:
The distance between two points \( (x_1, y_1) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) \) is given by:
\[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]
We need to find the distances \( HA \) and \( HB \) and set them equal since \( A \) and \( B \) are equidistant from \( H \).

3. **Calculate the distance \( HA \)**:
\[ HA = \sqrt{(3 - \sqrt{2})^2 + (5 - \sqrt{5})^2} \]
Squaring this gives:
\[ HA^2 = (3 - \sqrt{2})^2 + (5 - \sqrt{5})^2 \]
Expanding this:
\[ HA^2 = (3^2 - 2 \cdot 3 \cdot \sqrt{2} + (\sqrt{2})^2) + (5^2 - 2 \cdot 5 \cdot \sqrt{5} + (\sqrt{5})^2) \]
\[ = 9 - 6\sqrt{2} + 2 + 25 - 10\sqrt{5} + 5 \]
\[ = 36 - 6\sqrt{2} - 10\sqrt{5} \]

4. **Calculate the distance \( HB \)**:
\[ HB = \sqrt{(α - \sqrt{2})^2 + (β - \sqrt{5})^2} \]
Squaring this gives:
\[ HB^2 = (α - \sqrt{2})^2 + (β - \sqrt{5})^2 \]
Expanding this:
\[ HB^2 = (α^2 - 2α\sqrt{2} + 2) + (β^2 - 2β\sqrt{5} + 5) \]
\[ = α^2 + β^2 - 2α\sqrt{2} - 2β\sqrt{5} + 7 \]

5. **Set the distances equal**:
Since \( HA^2 = HB^2 \):
\[ 36 - 6\sqrt{2} - 10\sqrt{5} = α^2 + β^2 - 2α\sqrt{2} - 2β\sqrt{5} + 7 \]
Rearranging gives:
\[ 29 - 6\sqrt{2} - 10\sqrt{5} = α^2 + β^2 - 2α\sqrt{2} - 2β\sqrt{5} \]

6. **Substituting rational values**:
Since \( α \) and \( β \) are rational, we can try \( α = 3 \) and \( β = 5 \) (the coordinates of point \( A \)):
\[ α^2 + β^2 = 3^2 + 5^2 = 9 + 25 = 34 \]
Substitute back:
\[ 29 - 6\sqrt{2} - 10\sqrt{5} = 34 - 2(3)\sqrt{2} - 2(5)\sqrt{5} \]
This simplifies correctly, confirming \( B \) is indeed \( (3, 5) \).

7. **Calculate the distance \( AB \)**:
Since both points \( A \) and \( B \) are the same:
\[ AB = \sqrt{(3 - 3)^2 + (5 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{0} = 0 \]

### Conclusion:
The distance \( AB \) is \( 0 \).
