  • π \pi is transcendental.

  • ( 1 π ) (1-\pi) is transcendental.

π + ( 1 π ) = 1 \pi +(1-\pi) = 1

Where 1 is not a transcendental number.

Hence the answer is false \color{#D61F06} \boxed{\text{false}}

How do you prove that 1 π 1 - \pi is not algebraic?

e is transcendental e \text { is transcendental } .

And 1 e is also transcendental \text { And } 1 - e \text { is also transcendental } .

e + 1 e = 1 is not transcendental e + 1 - e = 1 \text { is not transcendental } .

Let L/K be an algebraic field extension and M/L be a transcendent one.

Then take l∈L and m∈M

Then we (l+m)+(−m)=l which is algebraic.

(m+l) is transcendent because L is closed.

This is not different for the field extensions

A/Q and R/A

where the first one is algebraic and the 2nd one is transcendental.
