We have,
f (x) defined on [a, b]
And f (x) > 0 ∀ x ∈ [a, b].
Let x1, x2 ∈ [a, b] and x2>x1
In the internal x1, x2], f (x) will also be continuous and differentiable.
Hence by mean value theorem, there exist c [x1, x2] such that
f (x) > 0 ∀ x ∈ [a, b].
Then, f (c) > 0.
i.e., f (x2) -f (x1) > 0
f (x2) >f (x1).
Hence, the function f (x) is always increasing on [a, b]

Let x be the radius of the sphere ad x be radius of the right circular cone.
Let height of cone = y
Then, in ΔOBA,
(y-r)2 + x2 = r2
y2 + r2- 2ry + x2 = r2
x2=2ry - y2
So, the volume V of the cone is
So,
And
At
4x -y- 3y2 = 0
asy> 0.
At y = =
Ø V is maximum when y =

We have,
f (x) = cos2x + sin x, x∈ [0, π ].
So, f (x) = 2 cos x ( -sin x) + cos x = cos x (1 - 2 sin x).
At f (x) = 0
cosx (1 - 2 sin x) = 0
cosx = 0 or 1 - 2 sin x = 0
cosx = cos or sin x = = sin = sin
x= , x = and x = [0, π ].
So, f = cos2 + sin = 1.

Absolute minimum of f (x) = and absolute minimum of f (x) = 1.

We have,
f (x) = (x- 2)4 (x + 1)3.
So, f (x) = (x- 2)4. 3 (x + 1)2 + (x + 1)3. 4 (x- 2)3.
= (x- 2)3 [x + 1)2 [3 (x- 2) + 4 (x + 1)]
= (x- 2)3 (x + 1)2 (3x- 6 + 4x + 4)
= (x- 2)3 (x + 1)2 (7x- 2).
At f (x) = 0.
(x- 2)3 (x + 1)2. (7x- 2) = 0.
x = 2, x = -1 or x =
As (x + 1)2> 0, we shave evaluate for the remaining factor.
At x = 2,
When x< 2, f (x) = ( -ve) (+ ve) (+ ve) = ( -ve) < 0.
When x> 2, f (x) = (+ ve) (+ ve) (+ ve) = (+ ve) > 0.
Øf (x) change from ( -ve) to (+ ve) as x increases
So, x = 2 is a point of local minima
At x = -1.
When x< -1, f (x) = ( -ve) (+ ve) ( -ve) =, ve > 0.
When x> -1, f (x) = ( -ve) (+ ve) (+ ve) =∉, ve > 0.
So, f (x) does not change through x -1.
Hence, x = -1 is a point of infixion
At x =
When x< f (x)

Let P be the point on hypotenuse of a triangle. ABC, t angle at B.
Which is at distance a& b from the sides of the triangle.
Let < BAC = < MPC = .
Then, in… ΔANP,

At tan Ø =
{ Øall trigonometric fxn are + ve in Ist quadrant}.
So, z is least for tanØ =
As, Sec2Ø = 1 + tan2Ø = 1 + =
secØ = =
And tan2Ø =
cot2Ø =
And cosec2Ø = 1 + cot2Ø = 1 + =

Let 'x' metre be the radius of the semi-circular opening mounded on the length '2x' side of rectangle. Then, let 'y' be the breadth of the rectangle.
Then, perimeter of the window = 10m
x + 2x + 2y + = 10.
Let the area of the window be A.
Then, A =
= [-πx2- 4x2 + 20x].
So, [ -2πx - 8x + 20]
And [ -2π - 8] = -π -4 = -( π+ 4)
At
[ -2πx - 8x + 20] = 0
2x + 8x = 20
x = =
At x = = -( π+ 4) < 0
Øx = is a point of minima.
And y =
Ø Dimensions of the window are
length = 2x =
breadth = y
radius = y =

Let r and s be the radius of the circle and length of side of square.
Then, sum of perimeter of circle and square = k
2πr +4s = k
s =
The area A be the total areas of the circle and square.
Then, A = πr2 + s2
So,
And
At
At

s =
s = 2r.
Hence, proved.
