Solution

Let f(x) = |sin x|. Then f is everywhere continuous but not differentiable at x = nπ, n ∈ Z.

Explanation:

Given that: f(x) = |sin x|

Let g(x) = sin x and t(x) = |x|

∴ f(x) = tog(x) = t[g(x)] = t(sin x) = |sin x|

Where g(x) and t(x) both are continuous.

∴ f(x) = got(x) is continuous but t(x) is not differentiable at x = 0.

So, f(x) is not continuous at sin x = 0

⇒ x = nπ, n ∈ Z.
