Consider the following statements:
1. The set of irrational numbers between \(\sqrt2\) and \(\sqrt5\) is infinite.
2. The set of all odd integers less than100 is finite.
Which statement(s) is/are correct?
1 only
Only 1 is true. Every nonempty real interval contains infinitely many irrational numbers. Odd integers below 100 include all negative odd integers, so that set is also infinite; statement 2 is false.
