Description: Lemma for sqrt2irr . This is the core of the proof: if A / B = sqrt ( 2 ) , then A and B are even, so A / 2 and B / 2 are smaller representatives, which is absurd by the method of infinite descent (here implemented by strong induction). This is Metamath 100 proof #1. (Contributed by NM, 20-Aug-2001) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 12-Sep-2015) (Proof shortened by JV, 4-Jan-2022)
