Proof that π is trancendental
e^iπ = -1
e is trancendental
i is algebraic
A trancendental number to the power of an algebraic number is trancendental
If π is algebraic then -1 must be trancendental
-1 is algebraic
Therefore π isn't algebraic
Therefore I is trancendental
e^iπ = -1
e is trancendental
i is algebraic
A trancendental number to the power of an algebraic number is trancendental
If π is algebraic then -1 must be trancendental
-1 is algebraic
Therefore π isn't algebraic
Therefore I is trancendental
