Proof that π is irrational In 1761, Lambert proved that is irrational by first showing that this continued fraction expansion holds: Then Lambert proved that if "x" is non-zero and rational then this expression must be irrational. Since tan(/4) = 1, it follows that /4 is irrational and therefore that is irrational. A simplification of Lambert's proof is given below. This proof uses the characterization of as the smallest positive number whose half is a zero of the cosine function and it actually proves that is irrational. As in many proofs of irrationality, the argument proceeds by reductio ad absurdum. Consider the sequences ("A") and
