Answer:
Statement 3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Statement 1:</u> For any positive integer n, the square root of n is irrational.
Suppose n = 25 (25 is positive integer), then
Since 5 is rational number, this statement is false.
<u>Statement 2:</u> If n is a positive integer, the square root of n is rational.
Suppose n = 8 (8 is positive integer), then
Since is irrational number, this statement is false.
<u>Statement 3:</u> If n is a positive integer, the square root of n is rational if and only if n is a perfect square.
If n is a positive integer and square root of n is rational, then n is a perfect square.
If n is a positive integer and n is a perfect square, then square root of n is a rational number.
This statement is true.
