Solution

Given that: f(x) = tan–1(sinx + cosx) in `(0, pi/4)`

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

f'(x) = `1/(1 + (sin x + cos x)^2) * "d"/"dx" (sinx + cos x)`

⇒ f'(x) = `(1 xx (cos x - sinx))/(1 + (sinx + cosx)^2` 

⇒ f'(x) = `(cosx - sinx)/(1 + sin^2x + cos^2x + 2 sin x cos x)`

⇒ f'(x) = `(cosx - sinx)/(1 + 1 + 2 sinx cosx)`

⇒ f'(x) = `(cosx - sinx)/(2 + 2 sinx cosx)`

For an increasing function f '(x) ≥ 0

∴ `(cosx - sinx)/(2 + 2 sinx cosx) ≥ 0`

⇒ cos x – sin x ≥ 0  ....`[because (2 + sin2x) ≥ "in" (0, pi/4)]`

⇒ cos x ≥ sin x, which is true for `(0, pi/4)`

Hence, the given function f(x) is an increasing function in `(0, pi/4)`.

Solution: f(x) = 2x3 – 15x2 – 84x – 7

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f'(x) = 6`(square) (square)`

Since f(x) is decreasing function.

∴ f'(x) < 0

Case 1: `(square)` > 0 and (x + 2) < 0

∴ x ∈ `square`

Case 2: `(square)` < 0 and (x + 2) > 0

∴ x ∈ `square`

∴ f(x) is decreasing function if and only if x ∈ `square`
