Write the following rational numbers in the form of decimal fractions: a) \(\frac {1}{7}\); b) \(\frac {2}{7}\); c) \(\frac{1}{14}\); d) \(\frac {1}{17}\).

Let the number \(\alpha\) be given by the decimal:

a) \(0.101001000100001000001 \dots\);

b) \(0.123456789101112131415 \dots\).

Will this number be rational?

Prove the irrationality of the following numbers:

a) \(\sqrt{3}{17}\)

b) \(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}\)

c) \(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{5}\)

d) \(\sqrt{3}{3} - \sqrt{2}\)

e) \(\cos 10^{\circ}\)

f) \(\tan 10^{\circ}\)

g) \(\sin 1^{\circ}\)

h) \(\log_{2}3\)

Is it possible for

a) the sum of two rational numbers irrational?

b) the sum of two irrational numbers rational?

c) an irrational number with an irrational degree to be rational?

Prove that the number \(\sqrt {2} + \sqrt {3} + \sqrt {5} + \sqrt {7} + \sqrt {11} + \sqrt {13} + \sqrt {17}\) is irrational.
