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)`.

Find the value of x for which the function f(x)= 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2 is decreasing.

Given f(x) = 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2

∴ f'(x) = `squarex^2 - square + square`

∴ f'(x) = `6(x - 1)(square)`

Now f'(x) < 0

∴ 6(x – 1)(x – 2) < 0

Since ab < 0 ⇔a < 0 and b < 0 or a > 0 and b < 0

Case 1: (x – 1) < 0 and (x – 2) < 0

∴ x < `square` and x > `square`

Which is contradiction

Case 2: x – 1 and x – 2 < 0

∴ x > `square` and x < `square`

1 < `square` < 2

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