The $x$-coordinates of two points $A$ and $B$ are the roots of the equation $x^{2} + 2ax - b^{2} = 0$,and their $y$-coordinates are the roots of the equation $y^{2} + 2py - q^{2} = 0$. Find the radius of the circle with $AB$ as its diameter.

  • A
    $\sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2} + p^{2} + q^{2}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{b^{2} + q^{2}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2} - p^{2} - q^{2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{a^{2} + p^{2}}$
