Irrational Roots

For the final video for 2018 we return to obsessing about irrational numbers. Everybody knows that root 2 is irrational but how do you figure out whether or not a scary expression involving several nested roots is irrational or not? Meet two very simple yet incredibly powerful tools that they ALMOST told you about in school. Featuring the Integral and Rational Root Theorems, pi Santa, e(lf), and a really cringy mathematical Christmas carol.
