Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) Neither monotonically increasing nor monotonically decreasing as `f(a- h) lt f(a) and f(a+h) lt f(a)`
(ii) Monotonically decreasing as ` f(a-h) gt f(a) gt f(a+h)`
(iii) Monotonically increasing as ` f(a-h) lt f(a) lt f(a+h)`
(iv) Neither monotonically increasing nor monotonically decreasing as ` f(a-h) lt f (a)" but " f(a+h) = f(a)`
