Question: Why can't the calculated values be consistent with the drawn values?

I’m trying to plot a 3D surface in Maple with variables l and m. I used numerical substitution to evaluate the function and the results are real and positive. However, when I plot the function over a range of l and m, the graph shows complex (imaginary) values instead.

This seems very strange to me and has been quite frustrating. I’ve tried many different approaches to resolve the issue, but nothing has worked so far.

Why is this happening? How can the function evaluate to real numbers with direct substitution, but show complex values during plotting?

Any suggestions or explanations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
