उत्तर
`f(x) = {{:(-(x^2 - 1), "if" x < 1),(x^2 - 1, "if" x> 1):}`
To find the left limit of f(x) at x = 1
When x → `1^-`
f(x) = `-(x^2 - 1)`
`f"'"(1^-) = lim_(x -> 1^-) (f(x) - f(1))/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^-) (-(x^2 - 1) - [-(1^2 - 1)])/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x - 1^-) (-(x^2 - 1) - 0)/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^-) (-(x - 1)(x + 1))/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^-) - (x + 1)`
`f"'"(1^-) = -(1 + 1)` = – 2 ........(1)
To find the right limit of f(x) at x = 1
When x → `1^+`
f(x) = `(x^2 - 1)`
`f"'"(1^+) = lim_(x -> 1^+) (f(x) - f(1))/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^+) ((x^2 - 1) - (1^2 - 1))/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x - 1^+) ((x^2 - 1) - 0)/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^+) ((x - 1)(x + 1))/(x - 1)`
= `lim_(x -> 1^+) (x + 1)`
`f"'"(1^+) = (1 + 1)` = 2 ........(2)
From equatios (1) and (2) we have
`f"'"(1^+) ≠ f"'"(1^+)`
∴ f(x) is not differentiable at x = 1.
