The period of the function f(x)=sin^(4)x...

The period of the function `f(x)=sin^(4)x+cos^(4)x` is:

A

`pi`

B

`2pi`

C

`4pi`

D

`(pi)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
We have ,
`f(x)=sin^(4)x+cos^(4x `
`implies f(x)=(sin^(2)x+cos^(2)x)^(2)=2 sin^(2)x cos^(2)x `
`implies f(x)=1-(1)/(2) ( sin 2x)^(2)=1-(1)/(2)((1- cos 4x)/(2))`
`implies f(x)=(3)/(4)+(1)/(4) cos 4x`
`:. ` f(x) is periodic with period `(2pi)/(4)=(pi)/(2)`.
