this question is wrong
for disapproving lets put x=2 and y = 3 (both are rational) and since expression is true for any rational which is not true
please rewrite the question again
Thanks & Regards

Suppose there are rationals satisfying this equation, we have (m/n)^2+(k/l)^2 = 3 or (ml)^2+(kn)^2 = 3(ln)^2 Note that the highest power of 3 that divides LHS is even, while it is odd on RHS. Hence this equation is impossible in integers. Hence no rational solutions exist
