Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Domain of the function is `[-1,1]`
`[sin^(-1)x]` is discontinuous at `x=-sin1,0, sin 1`
[x] is discontinuous at x = 0,1
Now `f(0^(+))=[0^(+)]-[0^(+)]=0-0=0`
`f(0^(-))=[0^(-)]-[0^(-)]=-1-(-1)=0`
Hence f(x) is continuous at x = 0.
Therefore points of discontinuity are `-sin 1, sin 1 and 1.`
