Step 1/3

We have to check true/false of the given expression

A. `(x-y+z)/(y-x-z)=1`

Taking LHS

`(x-y+z)/(y-x-z) = -((x-y+z))/((-y+x+z))`

` = -1!=1`

`LHS \ne RHS`

The given expression is false

Step 2/3

B. `3a-b<1/(3a+b)=>9a^2-b^2<1`

Explanation:

We know `(a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2`

`3a-b < 1/(3a+b)`

Multiplying both sides by `3a+b`

`(3a-b)(3a+b) < 1`

`9a^2-b < 1`

True

Step 3/3

C. `p^2-pq+q^2=(p-q)^2`

Explanation:

We know `(x-y)^2=x^2+y^2-2xy`

`(p-q)^2 = p^2-2pq+q^2`

So

`p^2-pq+q^2 \ne (p-q)^2`

Final Answer

Hence, only (B) is true remaining all false
