Question
Verify Rolle's theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals$\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos2\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)\text{ on }\Big[0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big]$

Answer

The given function is $\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos2\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)$ $=\cos\Big(2\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)=\sin2\text{x}.$ Thus, we have to show that there exists $\text{c}\in\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$ such that f'(c) = 0.We have
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\sin2\text{x}$ $\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=2\cos2\text{x}$ $\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=0$ $\Rightarrow2\cos2\text{x}=0$ $\Rightarrow\cos2\text{x}=0$ $\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{4}$ Thus, $\text{c}=\frac{\pi}{4}\in\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=0.$ Hence, Rolle's theorem is verified .
