Definition:Binomial (Euclidean)/First Binomial

Definition
Let $a$ and $b$ be two (strictly) positive real numbers such that $a + b$ is a binomial.

Then $a + b$ is a first binomial :
 * $(1): \quad a \in \Q$
 * $(2): \quad \dfrac {\sqrt {a^2 - b^2} } a \in \Q$

where $\Q$ denotes the set of rational numbers.
