is irrational repeating
The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational.. By definition, an irrational number in decimal form goes on forever without repeating (a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal). By definition, a rational number in decimal form either terminates or repeats. If you add a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal to a terminating decimal, you still have a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal.
