MCQ
If $\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log\text{x}),$ then the value of $\text{f(x}^2)\text{f}(\text{y}^2)-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}\big(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2\big)\Big\}$ is:
  • A
    -2
  • B
    -1
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • None of these.

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of these.
Given,
$\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(\log(\text{x}^2))$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(2\log(\text{x}))$
Similarly,
$\text{f}(\text{y}^2)=\cos(2\log(\text{y}))$
Now,
$\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)=\cos\Big(\log\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)\Big)=\cos\big(\log\text{x}^2-\log\text{y}^2\big)$
and $\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos(\log\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big(\log\text{x}^2+\log\text{y}^2\big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)+\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=2\cos(2\log\text{x})\cos(2\log\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\bigg[\Big(\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)\bigg]=\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)\text{f}(\text{y}^2)-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}\big(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2\big)\Big\}\\\ =\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})-\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})=0$
