Let $\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\cos\text{x}}{1+\sin\text{x}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg(\frac{\cos^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{\cos^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}+2\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg)$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\frac{\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)}{\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg(\frac{\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg)$
dividing by $\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg[\frac{1-\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg[\frac{\tan\frac{\pi}{2}-\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}\times\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\Big[\tan\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=0-\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=-\frac{1}{2}$

Let $\text{f(x)=}\begin{cases}\frac{\text{x}-4}{|\text{x}-4|}+\text{a},&\text{if }\text{ x} < 4\\\text{a}+\text{b},&\text{if }\text{ x} =4\\\frac{\text{x}-4}{|\text{x}-4|}+\text{b},&\text{if }\text{ x} > 4\end{cases}$ Then, f(x) is continus at x = 4 when:
AnswerGiven,
$\text{f(x)=}\begin{cases}\frac{\text{x}-4}{|\text{x}-4|}+\text{a},&\text{if }\text{ x} < 4\\\text{a}+\text{b},&\text{if }\text{ x} =4\\\frac{\text{x}-4}{|\text{x}-4|}+\text{b},&\text{if }\text{ x} > 4\end{cases}$
We have
$(\text{LHL at x = 4})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^-}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(4-\text{h})$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\Big(\frac{4- \text{h}-4}{|4-\text{h}-4|}+\text{a}\Big)=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\Big(\frac{-\text{h}}{|-\text{h}|}+\text{a}\Big)=\text{a}-1$
$(\text{RHL at x = 4})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^+}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f(4+h)}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\Big(\frac{4+\text{h}-4}{|4+\text{h}-4|}+\text{b}\Big)=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\Big(\frac{\text{h}}{|\text{h}|}+\text{b}\Big)=\text{b}+1$
Also,
$\text{f}(4)=\text{a+b}$
if(x) is continuous at x = 4, then
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^-}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^+}\text{f(x)}=\text{f}(4)$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}-1=\text{b}+1=\text{a + b}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}-\text{1}=\text{a + b}$ and $\text{b}+1=\text{a + b} $
$\Rightarrow\text{b}=-1$ and $\text{a}=1$

If $4a + 2b + c = 0,$ then the equation $3ax^2+ 2bx + c = 0$ has atleast one real root lying in the interval:
- A
$(0, 1)$
- B
$(1, 2)$
- ✓
$(0, 2)$
- D
AnswerCorrect option: C. $(0, 2)$
Let, $f(x) = ax^3+ bx^2 + cx + d$
$f(0) = d$
$f(2) = 8a + 4b + 2c + d$
$= 2(4a + 2b + c) + d$
$= 2 \times 0 + d$
$= 0$
$f$ is continuous and differentiable on $(0, 2)$
$f(0) = f(2)$
Using Rolle's theorem,
$f'(x) = 0$ for $(0, 2)$
$3ax^2+ 2bx + c = 0$
$f(x)$ has atleast one root in the interval $(0, 2).$
Hence $f\ '(x)$ must have root in the interval $(0, 2).$

We have, $\text{y}=\sec(\tan^{-1}\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sec\big(\tan^{-1}\text{x}\big)\tan\big(\tan^{-1}\text{x}\big)\times\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\tan^{-1}\text{x}\big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sec\big(\tan^{-1}\text{x}\big)\tan\big(\tan^{-1}\text{x}\big)\times\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\text{x}^2}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{y}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{1+\text{x}^2}}\Big)$

If $\text{f(x)}=\text{a}|\sin\text{x}|+\text{be}^{|\text{x}|}+\text{c|x|}^3$and if f(x) is differentiable at x = 0, then:
- A
$\text{a}=\text{b}=\text{c}=0$
- ✓
$\text{a}=0,\text{b}=0;\text{c}\in\text{R}$
- C
$\text{b}=\text{c}=0,\text{a}\in\text{R}$
- D
$\text{c}=0,\text{a}=0,\text{b}\in\text{R}$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\text{a}=0,\text{b}=0;\text{c}\in\text{R}$
We have,
$\text{f(x)}=\text{a}|\sin\text{x}|+\text{be}^{|\text{x}|}+\text{c|x|}^3$
$=\begin{cases}\text{a}\sin\text{x}+\text{bx}^\text{x}+\text{cx}^3 & 0<\text{x}<\frac{\pi}{2}\\-\text{a}\sin\text{x}+\text{be}^{-\text{x}}-\text{cx}^3 & -\frac{\pi}{2}<\text{x}<0\end{cases}$
Here, f(x) is differentiable at x = 0
Therefore, (LHL at x = 0) = (RHL at x = 0)
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^{-}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(0)}{\text{x}-0}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^{+}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(0)}{\text{x}-0}$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^{-}}\frac{-\text{a}\sin\text{x}+\text{be}^{-\text{x}}-\text{cx}^3-\text{b}}{\text{x}}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^{+}}\frac{\text{a}\sin\text{x}+\text{be}^{\text{x}}-\text{cx}^3-\text{b}}{\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{-\text{a}\sin(0-\text{h})+\text{be}^{-(0-\text{h)}}-\text{c}(0-\text{h})^3-\text{b}}{0-\text{h}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}\sin(0+\text{h})+\text{be}^{(0+\text{h)}}+\text{c}(0+\text{h})^3-\text{b}}{0+\text{h}}$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}\sin\text{h}+\text{be}^{\text{h}}+\text{ch}^3-\text{b}}{-\text{h}}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}\sin\text{h}+\text{be}^{\text{h}}+\text{ch}^3-\text{b}}{\text{h}} $
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}\cos\text{h}+\text{be}^{\text{h}}+3\text{ch}^2}{-1}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}\cos\text{h}+\text{be}^{\text{h}}+3\text{ch}^2}{1} $ (By L'Hospital rule)
$\Rightarrow-(\text{a}+\text{b})=\text{a}+\text{b}$
$\Rightarrow-2(\text{a}+\text{b})=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}+\text{b}=0$
This is true for all value of c
$\therefore\text{c}\in\text{R}$
In the given option (b) satisfies a + b = 0 and $\text{c}\in\text{R.}$

Choose the correct answers from the given four options:
If $\text{y}=\sqrt{\sin\text{x}+\text{y}},$ then $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ is equal to:
- ✓
$\frac{\cos\text{x}}{2\text{y}-1}$
- B
$\frac{\cos\text{x}}{1-2\text{y}}$
- C
$\frac{\sin\text{x}}{1-2\text{y}}$
- D
$\frac{\sin\text{x}}{2\text{y}-1}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{\cos\text{x}}{2\text{y}-1}$
We have, $\because\text{y}=(\sin\text{x}+\text{y})^{\frac{1}{2}}$
$\therefore\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{2}(\sin\text{x}+\text{y})^{\frac{-1}{2}}\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sin\text{x}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{(\sin\text{x}+\text{y})^{\frac{1}{2}}}\cdot\Big(\cos\text{x}+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{2\text{y}}\cdot\Big(\cos\text{x}+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)$ $\big[\because(\sin\text{x}+\text{y})^{\frac{1}{2}}=\text{y}\big]$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big(1-\frac{1}{2\text{y}}\Big)=\frac{\cos\text{x}}{2\text{y}}$
$\therefore\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\cos\text{x}}{2\text{y}}\cdot\frac{2\text{y}}{2\text{y}-1}=\frac{\cos\text{x}}{2\text{y}-1}$

For the function $\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{x}+1\text{x},\text{x}\in[1,3],$ the value of c for the Lagrange's mean value theorem is:
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\sqrt3$
We have
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{\text{x}^2+1}{\text{x}}$
Clearly, f(x) is continuous on [1, 3] and derivable on (1, 3).
Thus, both the conditions of Lagrange's theorem is satisfied.
Concequently there exists $\text{c}\in(1,3)$ such that
$\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(3)-\text{f}(1)}{3-1}=\frac{\text{f}(3)-\text{f}(1)}{2}$
Now, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}^2+1}{\text{x}}$
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}^2-1}{\text{x}^2},\text{f}(1)=2,\text{f}(3)=\frac{10}{3}$
$\therefore\ \text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{f}(3)-\text{f}(1)}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}^2-1}{\text{x}^2}=\frac{4}{6}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}^2-1}{\text{x}^2}=\frac{2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{x}^2-3=2\text{x}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\pm\sqrt3$
Thus, $\text{c}=\sqrt3\in(1,3)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(3)-\text{f}(1)}{3-1}.$

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{1}{2}$
Given, $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\text{x}\sin\frac{\pi}{2}(\text{x}+1),&\text{x}\leq0\\\frac{\tan\text{x}-\sin\text{x}}{\text{x}^3},&\text{x}>0\end{cases}$
We have,
$(\text{LHL at x}=0)=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^{-}}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(0-\text{h})\\=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(-\text{h})=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{a}\sin\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}(-\text{h+1})\Big)=\text{a}\sin\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)=\text{a}$

$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\frac{\sin\text{h}}{\cos\text{h} }-\sin\text{h}}{\text{h}^3}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\frac{\sin\text{h}}{\cos\text{h}}(1-\cos\text{h})}{\text{h}^3}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{(1-\cos\text{h})\tan\text{h}}{\text{h}^3}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{2\sin^2\frac{\text{h}}{2}\tan\text{h}}{4\times\frac{\text{h}^2}{4}\times\text{h}}$
$=\frac{2}{4}\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sin^2\frac{\text{h}}{2}\tan\text{h}}{\frac{\text{h}^2}{4}\times\text{h}}$

$=\frac{1}{2}\times1\times1$
$=\frac{1}{2}$
If f(x) is continuous at x = 0, then

If $x^y = e^{x-y}$ then $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ is:
- A
$\frac{1+\text{x}}{1+\log\text{x}}$
- B
$\frac{1-\log\text{x}}{1+\log\text{x}}$
- C
$\text{Not defined.}$
- ✓
$\frac{\log\text{x}}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$
AnswerCorrect option: D. $\frac{\log\text{x}}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$
We have$, x^y = e^{x-y}$Taking $\log$ on both sides we get,
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}=(\text{x}-\text{y})\log)_\text{e}\text{e}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}=\text{x}-\text{y}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}+\text{y}=\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}(1+\log\text{x})=\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{\text{x}}{(1+\log\text{x})}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{(1+\log\text{x})\times1-\text{x}\times\Big(1+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1+\log\text{x}-1}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\log\text{x}}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$

The set points where the function f(x) given by $\text{f(x)=}|\text{x}-3|\cos\text{x}$ is diffrentiable, is:
Answer(LHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3^{-}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(3)}{\text{x}-3}$
(LHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(3-\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{3-\text{h}-3}$
(LHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(3-\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{-\text{h}}$
(LHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{|3-\text{h}-3|\cos(3-\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{-\text{h}}$
(LHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{h}\cos(3-\text{h})-0}{-\text{h}}=-\cos3$
(RHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3^{+}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(3)}{\text{x}-3}$
(RHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(3+\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{3+\text{h}-3}$
(RHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(3+\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{\text{h}}$
(RHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{|3+\text{h}-3|\cos(3+\text{h})-\text{f}(3)}{\text{h}}$
(RHL at x = 3) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{h}\cos(3+\text{h})-0}{\text{h}}=\cos3$
So, f(x) is not diffrentiable at x = 3.
Also,f(x) is diffrentiable at all other points because both modulus and cosine function are differentiable and the product of two differentiable function is differentiable.

AnswerCorrect option: B. $\frac{\sin^2(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\sin\text{a}}$
We have, $\sin\text{y}=\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sin\text{y})=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big[\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\big]$

$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\times1+\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})+\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\big\{\cos\text{y}-\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\big\}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\Big\{\cos\text{y}-\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})}\times\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\Big\}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\begin{bmatrix} \because \sin\text{y}=2\sin\text{c}\cos\text{x} \\ \therefore\text{x}=\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})} \end{bmatrix}$

AnswerCorrect option: C. $-\text{a}^{\frac{1}{2}}$
Given, $\text{f(x)}=\frac{\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}-\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}{}}{\sqrt{\text{a+x}}-\sqrt{\text{a-x}}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}-\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}-\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{\big(\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2\big)-\big(\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}-\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{(-2\text{ax})\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}-\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{(-2\text{ax})\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}{\big(\text{a+x-a+x}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2}+\text{ax+x}^2\big)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{(-2\text{ax})\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}{(2\text{x})\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{-\text{a}\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}^2}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)}$
So, if f(x) is continuous at x = 0, then
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f(x)}=\text{f(0)}$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\Bigg[\frac{-\text{a}\big(\sqrt{\text{a+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a-x}}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{ax+x}}+\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{ax+x}^2}\big)} \Bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\bigg[\frac{-2\text{a}(\sqrt{\text{a}})}{(\sqrt{a}^2+\sqrt{\text{a}^2})}\bigg]=\text{f(0)}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}\frac{-2\text{a}(\sqrt{a})}{(\text{a+a})} \end{bmatrix}=\text{f(0)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}(0)$
$=-\sqrt{a}$

The value of $c$ in Rolle's theorem for the function $\text{f}(\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}(\text{x}+1)}{\text{e}^{\text{x}}}$ defined on $[-1, 0]$ is:
- A
$0.5$
- B
$\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}$
- ✓
$\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}$
- D
$-0.5$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}$
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}(\text{x}+1)}{\text{e}^{\text{x}}}$ defined on $[-1, 0]$
$\Rightarrow f(-1) = 0$ also $f(0) = 0$
Now, $f(x) = e^{-x}(x^2 + x)$
$\Rightarrow f'(x) = e^{-x}(2x + 1) - (x^2 + x)e^{-x}$
$\Rightarrow f'(x) = e^{-x}(2x + 1 - x^2 + x)$
$\Rightarrow f'(x) = e^{-x}(-x^2 + x - 1)$
$\Rightarrow f'(x) = 0$
$\Rightarrow e^{-x}(-x^2 + x - 1) = 0$
$\Rightarrow -x^2 + x - 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow x^2 - x + 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{1\pm\sqrt5}{2}$
As, $\text{x}\in[-1,0]$
$\text{x}=\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}$

The derivative of the function $\cot^{-1}\Big|(\cos2\text{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big|\text{ at }\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6}$ is:
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^\frac{1}{2}$
We have, $\text{y}=\cot^{-1}\Big(\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{1+\cot2\text{x}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{2\cos^2\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\cos2\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{2\cos^2\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}\times-2\sin2\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\sin2\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}\times2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}\times2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\tan\text{x}}{\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
So, at $\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6},$ we get
$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6}}=\frac{\tan\big(\frac{\pi}{6}\big)}{\sqrt{\cos2\big(\frac{\pi}{6}\big)}}=\frac{\big(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\big)}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}}=\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^\frac{1}{2}$

- A
$\text{a}=1,\text{ b}=-1$
- B
$\text{a}=-1,\text{ b}=1+\sqrt{2}$
- ✓
$\text{a}=-1,\text{ b}=1$
- D
$\text{None os these}.$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\text{a}=-1,\text{ b}=1$
Given, f(x) is continuous for $0\leq\text{x}<\infty.$
This means that f(x) is continuous for $\text{x}=1,\sqrt{2.}$
Now,
If(x) is continuons at x = 1, then
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^-}\text{f(x)}=\text{f}(1)$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(1-\text{h})=\text{a}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{(1-\text{h})^2}{\text{a}}=\text{a}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{a}}=\text{a}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}^2=1$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}=\pm1$
If f(x) is continuous at $\text{x}={\sqrt{2}},$ then
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\sqrt{2}^-}\text{f(x)}=\text{f}(\sqrt{2})$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(\sqrt{2}-\text{h})=\frac{2\text{b}^2-4\text{b}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{a=b}^2-2\text{b}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a = b}^2-2\text{b}$
$\Rightarrow\text{b}^2-2\text{b - a}=0$
$\therefore$ For a = -1, We have
$\text{b}^2-2\text{b}+1=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{b}-1)^2=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{b}=1$
Thus, a = -1 and b=1

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\cos\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=-3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta\ .....(\text{i})$
And,
$\text{y}=\text{a}\sin^3\theta$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=\text{a}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin^3\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\cos\theta\ .....(\text{ii})$
Dividing (ii) by (i), we get,
$\frac{\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}\theta}}{\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}}=\frac{3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\cos\theta}{-3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\sin\theta}{-\cos\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-\tan\theta$
Now, $\sqrt{1+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2}=\sqrt{1+\tan^2\theta}$
$=\sqrt{\sec^2\theta}=|\sec\theta|$

$=-(\text{x}-5)\ \text{x}<5$
$\text{f}'\text{(x)}=1\ \text{x}\geq5$
$=-1\text{ x}<5$
Hence, we can not define derivative of the function on [0, 7].

The value of k which makes $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\sin\frac{1}{\text{x}},&\text{x}\neq0\\\text{k},&\text{x}=0\end{cases}$ continuous at x = 0, is:
AnswerIf f(x) is continuous at x = 0, then
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f(x)}=\text{f}(0)$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\Big(\sin\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\text{k}$
But $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\Big(\sin\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)$ does not exist. Thus, there dose not exist any k thet makes f(x) a continuous function.

Let $\text{f(x)}\begin{cases}\text{ax}^2+1,&\text{x}<1\\\text{x}+\frac{1}{2},&\text{x}\leq1\end{cases}.$ Then, f(x) is derivable at x = 1, if:
- A
- B
- C
- ✓
$\text{a}=\frac{1}{2}$.
AnswerCorrect option: D. $\text{a}=\frac{1}{2}$.
Given: $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\text{ax}^2+1,&\text{x}<1\\\text{x}+\frac{1}{2},&\text{x}\leq1\end{cases}$
The function is derivable at x = 1, if left hand derivative and right hand derivative of the function are equal at x = 1.
(LHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^{-}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(1)}{\text{x}-1}$
(LHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1-\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{1-\text{h}-1}$
(LHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1-\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{-\text{h}}$
(LHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\Big(1-\text{h}+\frac{1}{2}\Big)-\frac{3}{2}}{-\text{h}}=1$
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^{+}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(1)}{\text{x}-1}$
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1+\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{1+\text{h}-1}$
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1+\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{\text{h}}$
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}(1+\text{h})^2+1-\frac{3}{2}}{\text{h}}$
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}(1-\text{h}^2+2\text{h})-\frac{1}{2}}{\text{h}}$
$\therefore\text{LHL}=\text{RHL}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}-\frac{1}{2}=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}-\frac{1}{2}$
