Consider the following statements: 1. f(x)=[x]f(x)=[x], where [.] is the greatest integer function, is discontinuous at x=nx=n, where n∈Zn \in \mathbb{Z}. 2. f(x)=cot⁡x\quad f(x)=\cot x is discontinuous at x=nπx=n \pi, where n∈Zn \in \mathbb{Z}. which of the above statements is/are correct?

Options

  1. A1 only
  2. B2 only
  3. CBoth 1 and 2
  4. DNeither 1 or 2

Correct answer

C. Both 1 and 2

Step-by-step solution

From statement-1 From the definition of greatest integer function f(x)=[x]f(x)=[x] is discontinuous at x=nx=n for any value of n∈Z∴n \in \mathbb{Z}\therefore \quad Statement 1 is correct From statement-2 f(x)=cot⁡x\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\cot \mathrm{x} for x=π=cot⁡π=−∞x=\pi=\cot \pi=-\infty for x=2πf(2π)=cot⁡2π=−∞\mathrm{x}=2 \pi\mathrm{f}(2 \pi)=\cot 2 \pi=-\infty Hence the function f(x)=cot⁡xf(x)=\cot x is discontinuous at x=nπ\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{n} \pi where n∈Z\mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{Z}. ∴\therefore \quad Option (C) is correct.
