MCQ
Which one is the correct statement about the function $f(x) = \sin 2x$
  • A
    $f(x)$ is increasing in $\left( {0,{\pi \over 2}} \right)$ and decreasing in $\left( {{\pi \over 2},\pi } \right)$
  • B
    $f(x)$ is decreasing in $\left( {0,{\pi \over 2}} \right)$ and increasing in $\left( {{\pi \over 2},\pi } \right)$
  • $f(x)$ is increasing in $\left( {0,{\pi \over 4}} \right)$ and decreasing in $\left( {{\pi \over 4},{\pi \over 2}} \right)$
  • D
    The statements $(a), (b)$ and  $(c) $ are all correct

Answer

Correct option: C.
$f(x)$ is increasing in $\left( {0,{\pi \over 4}} \right)$ and decreasing in $\left( {{\pi \over 4},{\pi \over 2}} \right)$
c
(c) As $f(x) = \sin 2x \Rightarrow f'(x) = 2\cos 2x$

Obviously $f'(x) > 0$ in $\left( {0,\frac{\pi }{4}} \right)$ and

$f'(x) < 0$ in $\left( {\frac{\pi }{4},\,\frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$

Hence the result.
