The function f x = tan ⁡ x + 1 x ,   ∀ x ∈ 0 , π 2 has
Options
- Aone local maximum
- Bone local minimum
- Cone local maximum and one minimum
- Dno local maximum or minimum
Correct answer
B. one local minimum
Step-by-step solution
d y d x = sec 2 ⁡ x – 1 x 2 = x - cos ⁡ x x + cos ⁡ x cos 2 ⁡ x . x 2 Hence, at α sign of d y d x changes from negative to positive i.e., y = f x has a local minimum
