To find the maximum value of the function \( f(x) = \sin x + \cos x \), we will use the method of derivatives. Here are the steps to solve the problem: ### Step 1: Find the first derivative We start by differentiating the function \( f(x) \): \[ f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(\sin x + \cos x) = \cos x - \sin x \] ...
