MCQ
The minimum value of $\frac{{\tan \,\left( {x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)}}{{\tan \,x}}$ is
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $1/2$
  • C
    $1$
  • $3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$3$
d
$f(x)$ has a period equal to $\pi$ & can take values $(-\infty , \infty )$ $==> 3$ is the local minimum value.

$y = \frac{{2\,\,\sin \,\,\left( {x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)\,\,\cos \,x}}{{2\,\,\sin \,x\,\,\cos \,\,\left( {x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)}} = \frac{{\sin \,\,\left( {2\,x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)\,\, + \,\,\sin \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}}}{{\sin \,\,\left( {2\,x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)\,\, - \,\,\sin \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}}} $

$ = 1 + \frac{1}{{\sin \,\,\left( {2\,x\,\, + \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}} \right)\,\, - \,\,\sin \,\,{\textstyle{\pi \over 6}}}}$

$y$ is minimum if $2 x + \frac{\pi }{6} = \frac{\pi }{2}$

$==> x = \frac{\pi }{6}$                    $ ==> y_{min} = 1 + 2 = 3 $
