A function f(x)f(x) is defined as follows: f(x)=\left\{x+π for x∈[−π,0)πcos⁡x for x∈[0,π2](x−π2)2 for x∈(π2,π]\begin{array}{ccc} x+\pi & \text{ for } & x \in[-\pi, 0) \\ \pi \cos x & \text{ for } & x \in\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \\ \left(x-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^2 & \text{ for } & x \in\left(\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right] \end{array}\right. Consider the following statements: 1. The function f(x)f(x) is differentiable at x=0x=0. 2. The function f(x)\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) is differentiable at x=π2\mathrm{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}. Which of the above statements is/are correct?

For differentiability, L.H.D. = R.H.D. Thus at x=0x=0 L.H.D. =lim⁡h→0f(0−h)−f(0)−h=lim⁡h→0f(−h)−f(0)−h=lim⁡h→0(−h+π)−(πcos⁡0)−h=1 L.H.D. =1 R.H.D. =lim⁡h→0f(0+h)−f(0)h=lim⁡h→0f(h)−f(0)h=lim⁡h→0πcos⁡h−πcos⁡0h=lim⁡h→0π[cos⁡h−1]h\begin{aligned} \text{ L.H.D. } & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(0-h)-f(0)}{-h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(-h)-f(0)}{-h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{(-h+\pi)-(\pi \cos 0)}{-h}=1 \\ \text{ L.H.D. }= & 1 \\ \text{ R.H.D. } & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(0+h)-f(0)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(h)-f(0)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\pi \cos h-\pi \cos 0}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\pi[\cos h-1]}{h}\end{aligned}$\begin{aligned} & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\pi\left[1-\frac{h^2}{2!}+\frac{h^4}{4!} \ldots \ldots-1\right]}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\pi\left[1-\frac{1}{2} h^2+\frac{1}{24} h^4 \ldots..-1\right]}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\pi\left[-\frac{1}{2} h^2+\frac{1}{24} h^4 \ldots \ldots\right]}{h}=0\end{aligned}\text{ L.H.D. } \neq \text{ R.H.D. }SoatSo atx=0functionisnotdifferentiable.Statement(1)isnotcorrect.Atfunction is not differentiable. Statement (1) is not correct.
