The length of the largest continuous int...

The length of the largest continuous interval in which the function `f(x)=4x-tan2x` is monotonic is (a) `pi/2` (b) `pi/4` (c) `pi/8` (d) `pi/(16)`

A

`pi//2`

B

`pi//4`

C

`pi//8`

D

`pi//16`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

`(X) =4-2 sec ^(2) 2x=2(1-tan^(2) 2x)`
for the continous domain `-((pi)/(4),(pi)/(4)),f(x)ge0 in [(-pi)/(8),(pi)/(8)] "and" f(x)le0 in (-(pi)/(4),(pi)/(8))]cup[(pi)/(8),(pi)/(4)`
So the required largest continous interval is `[(-pi)/(8),(pi)/(8)]` and length is `(pi)/(4)`
