MCQ
The minimum value of $2^{sin x}+2^{cos x}$ is
  • $2^{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}$
  • B
    $2^{-1+\sqrt{2}}$
  • C
    $2^{1-\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $2^{-1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$2^{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}$
a
Usnign $AM \geq GM$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2^{\sin x}+2^{\cos x}}{2} \geq \sqrt{2^{\sin x} \cdot 2^{\cos x}}$

$\Rightarrow 2^{\sin x}+2^{\cos x} \geq 2^{1+\left(\frac{\sin x+\cos x}{2}\right)}$

$\Rightarrow \min \left(2^{\sin x}+2^{\cos x}\right)=2^{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}$
