Let $~\alpha~$ and $~\beta~$ be irrational numbers such that
$$~\alpha \notin \{\beta, -\beta\}$$ and $$~\alpha \notin \left\{\frac{1}{\beta}, -\frac{1}{\beta}\right\}$$
I suppose that in this case their product $~\alpha\beta~$ should also be irrational number. But is it true? And if so, how can we prove it?
EDIT The initial hypothesis is too weak as Michael Hardy has shown. So the following question arises: is there any criterion for the product of irrational numbers to be irrational?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
