The correct Answer is:
To find the domain of the function \( f(x) = \sqrt{\tan x - \tan^2 x} \), we need to ensure that the expression inside the square root is non-negative. This leads us to the inequality: \[ \tan x - \tan^2 x \geq 0 \] ### Step 1: Factor the expression We can factor the expression as follows: \[ \tan x (1 - \tan x) \geq 0 \] ### Step 2: Analyze the factors The product \( \tan x (1 - \tan x) \) is non-negative when both factors are either positive or zero, or both are negative. 1. **Case 1:** \( \tan x \geq 0 \) and \( 1 - \tan x \geq 0 \) - This implies: \[ \tan x \geq 0 \quad \text{and} \quad \tan x \leq 1 \] - Therefore, we have: \[ 0 \leq \tan x \leq 1 \] 2. **Case 2:** \( \tan x \leq 0 \) and \( 1 - \tan x \leq 0 \) - This implies: \[ \tan x \leq 0 \quad \text{and} \quad \tan x \geq 1 \] - However, this case is impossible because \( \tan x \) cannot be both less than or equal to 0 and greater than or equal to 1 at the same time. ### Step 3: Determine the intervals for \( x \) Now we need to find the intervals where \( 0 \leq \tan x \leq 1 \). - The function \( \tan x \) is zero at \( x = n\pi \) (where \( n \) is any integer). - The function \( \tan x \) equals 1 at \( x = \frac{\pi}{4} + n\pi \). Thus, we need the intervals where \( \tan x \) is between 0 and 1. The relevant intervals are: 1. From \( n\pi \) to \( \frac{\pi}{4} + n\pi \) for \( n \) being any integer. ### Step 4: Write the domain The domain of the function \( f(x) \) can be expressed as: \[ \text{Domain of } f(x) = \bigcup_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \left[ n\pi, \frac{\pi}{4} + n\pi \right] \] ### Final Answer The domain of the function \( f(x) = \sqrt{\tan x - \tan^2 x} \) is: \[ \boxed{\bigcup_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \left[ n\pi, \frac{\pi}{4} + n\pi \right]} \]
