The maximum value of `sin(x+pi/5)+cos(x+pi/5),` where `x in (0, pi/2),` is attained at

A

`(pi)/(20)`

B

`(pi)/(15)`

C

`(pi)/(10)`

D

`(pi)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Let `y=sin(x+(pi)/(5))+cos (x+(pi)/(5))`
`rarr (dy)/(dx)= cos (x+(pi))//(5)- sin (x+(pi))/(5)`
for maximum value `(dy)/(dx)=0`
`therefore cos (x+(pi))/(5)-sin(x+(pi)/(5))=0`
`rarr cot (x+(pi))/(5)=cot(pi)/(4)`
`rarr cot (x+(pi))/(5)=cot(pi)/(4)`
`rarr x+(pi)/(5)=(pi)/(4)`
`rarr x=(pi)/(4)-(pi)/(5)=(5pi-4pi)/(20)=(pi)/(20)`
