#### True or False Question

**(g) True or False:**
\[ \langle p, q \rangle = pq \] 
defines an inner product on \(\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{R})\).

**Explanation:**
- \(\langle p, q \rangle\) represents the inner product of \(p\) and \(q\).
- \(pq\) represents the product of \(p\) and \(q\).
- \(\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{R})\) denotes the vector space of polynomials with real coefficients.

This question evaluates whether the stated operation satisfies the properties required to be an inner product.
