The maximum value of sin⁡\l\sin \l left(x+π6)+cos⁡\llleft(x+π6)intheinterval(0,π2)\frac{\pi}{6})+\cos\l lleft(x+\frac{\pi}{6})in the interval \left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right) is attained at

Options

  1. Aπ12\frac{\pi}{12}
  2. Bπ6\frac{\pi}{6}
  3. Cπ3\frac{\pi}{3}
  4. Dπ2\frac{\pi}{2}

Correct answer

A. π12\frac{\pi}{12}

Step-by-step solution

sin⁡(x+π6)+cos⁡(x+π6)=2[12sin⁡(x+π6)+12cos⁡(x+π6)]=2[sin⁡(x+π6)cos⁡π4+cos⁡(x+π6)sin⁡π4]=2[sin⁡(x+π6+π4)](∵sin⁡(A+B)=sin⁡Acos⁡B+cos⁡Asin⁡B=2[sin⁡(x+5π12)]\begin{aligned} & \sin \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right)+\cos \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \\ & =\sqrt{2}\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sin \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right)+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cos \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\right] \\ & =\sqrt{2}\left[\sin \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \cos \frac{\pi}{4}+\cos \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \sin \frac{\pi}{4}\right] \\ & =\sqrt{2}\left[\sin \left(x+\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\right] \\ & (\because \sin (A+B)=\sin A \cos B+\cos A \sin B \\ & =\sqrt{2}\left[\sin \left(x+\frac{5 \pi}{12}\right)\right] \end{aligned} Given interval is (0,π2)\left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right) For, maximum value x+5π12=π2⇒x=π2−5π12=6π−5π12=π12\mathrm{x}+\frac{5 \pi}{12}=\frac{\pi}{2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{5 \pi}{12}=\frac{6 \pi-5 \pi}{12}=\frac{\pi}{12}
