उत्तर

Let a be an arbitrary real number.

∴ f(a) = sin a – cos a

`lim_(x->a ^+)` f(x) = `lim_(h->0)` sin (a + h) – cos (a + h)

= `lim_(h->0)` [(sin a cos h + cos a sin h) − cos a cos h – sin a sin h]

= sin a cos 0 + cos a sin 0 – cos a cos 0 + sin a sin 0

= sin a (1) + cos a (0) – cos a (1) + sin a (0)

= sin a – cos a

`lim_(x->a^-)` f(x) = `lim_(h->0)` [(sin (a – h) – cos (a – h)]

= `lim_(h->0)` [(sin a cos h – cos a sin h) – (cos a cos h + sin a sin h)]

= sin a – cos a

∴ `lim_(x->a^-)` f(x) = `lim_(x->a^+)` f(x) = f(a)

⇒ f(x) is continuous at x = a.

∴ f(x) = sin x – cos x is everywhere continuous.
