If Q denotes the set of all rational numbers and f(pq)=p2−q2f\left( {\frac{p}{q}} \right) = \sqrt {{p^2} - {q^2}} for any pq∈Q\frac{p}{q} \in {\cal Q}, then observe the following statements.

I. f(pq)f\left( {\frac{p}{q}} \right) is real for each pq∈Q\frac{p}{q} \in {\cal Q}.

II.f(pq)f\left( {\frac{p}{q}} \right) is a complex number for each pq∈Q\frac{p}{q} \in {\cal Q}.

Which of the following is correct?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
I is false, II is true
The correct answer is C (I is false, II is true) because if p < q, then the square root of a negative number results in a complex number, making statement I false and statement II true.
