Tom Brady claims that if you multiply two irrational numbers together you will ALWAYS get an irrational
number, and NEVER a rational number. He supports his claim with the example of multiplying the irrational
numbers 5 and 6.
He shows V5-V6 = 730, which is irrational and supports his claim.
Give an example proving Tom Brady wrong, where two irrational numbers can multiply to a rational number.
