Solution

Given that f(x) = |sin x + cos x| at x = π

Put g(x) = sin x + cos x and h(x) = |x|

∴ h[g(x)] = h(sin x + cos x) = |sin x + cos x|

Now, g(x) = sin x + cos x is a continuous function since sin x and cos x are two continuous functions at x = π.

We know that every modulus function is a continuous function everywhere.

Hence, f(x) = |sin x + cos x| is continuous function at x = π.
