Question
Show that $\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{x}^2-\text{x}\sin\text{x}$ is an increasing function on $\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big).$

Answer
We have,
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{x}^2-\text{x}\sin\text{x}$
$\therefore\ \text{f}'(\text{x})=2\text{x}-\sin\text{x}-\text{x}\cos\text{x}$
Now,
$\text{x}\in\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow0\leq\sin\text{x}\leq1,0\leq\cos\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}-\sin\text{x}-\text{x}\cos\text{x}>0$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})\geq0$
So, f(x) is strictly increasing function on $\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big).$
