Let f : - π 2 , π 2 → R be given by f x = log ⁡ sec ⁡ x + tan ⁡ x 3 . Then
Options
- Af x is an odd function
- Bf x is a one - one function
- Cf x is an onto function
- Df x is an even function
Correct answer
A. f x is an odd function
Step-by-step solution
f x = log sec x + tan x 3 ∀ x ∈ - π 2 , π 2 f - x = - f x , hence f x is odd function Let g x = sec x + tan x ∀ x ∈ - π 2 , π 2 ⇒ g ′ x = sec x sec x + tan x > 0 ∀ x ∈ - π 2 , π 2 ⇒ g x is one - one function Hence log e g x 3 is one - one function. And g x ∈ 0 , ∞ ∀ x ∈ - π 2 , π 2 ⇒ log g x ∈ R Hence f x is an onto function.
