MCQ
Domain of $\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{x}^2}(\text{a}>0)$ is.
  • A
    $(-a, a)$
  • $[-a, a]$
  • C
    $[0, a]$
  • D
    $(-a, 0]$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$[-a, a]$
We have $\text{f(x)}\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{x}^2}$
Clearly $f(x)$ is defined, if ${\text{a}^2-\text{x}^2}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2\leq\text{a}^2$
$\Rightarrow-\text{a}\leq\text{x}\leq\text{a} \ [\therefore\text{a}>0]$
$\therefore$ Domain of $f$ is $[-a, a]$
