APPLICATION OF DERIVATIVES
Tangent and Normal
Let y = f(x) be function with graph as shown in figure. Consider secant PQ. If Q tends to P along the curve
passing through the points Q1, Q
2, .....I.e. Q P, secant PQ will become tangent at P. A line through P
perpendicular to tangent is called normal at P.
Geometrical Meaning of dy
dx
As Q P, h 0 and slope of chord PQ tends to slope of tangent at P (see figure).
Slope of chord PQ = f(x h) f(x)
h
Q Plim
slope of chord PQ = h 0lim
f(x h) f(x)
h
slope of tangent at P = f(x) = dy
dx
Equation of tangent and normal
1 1(x , y )
dy
dx
= f(x1) denotes the slope of tangent at point (x
1, y
1) on the curve y = f(x). Hence the equation
of tangent at (x1, y
1) is given by
(y – y1) = f(x
1) (x – x
1) ; when, f(x
1) is real.
Also, since normal is a line perpendicular to tangent at (x1 , y
1) so its equation is given by
(y – y1) = –
1
1
f (x ) (x – x
1), when f(x
1) is nonzero real.
If f(x1) = 0, then tangent is the line y = y
1 and normal is the line x = x
1.
If h 0lim
1 1f(x h) f(x )
h
= or – , then x = x
1 is tangent (VERTICAL TANGENT) and y = y
1 is normal.
Example # 1 Find equation of tangent to y = ex at x = 0. Hence draw graph
Solution : At x = 0 y = e0 = 1
dy
dx = ex
x 0
dy
dx
= 1
Hence equation of tangent is 1 (x – 0) = (y – 1)
y = x + 1
Example # 2 Find the equation of all straight lines which are tangent to curve y = 1
x 1 and which are
parallel to the line x + y = 0.
Solution : Suppose the tangent is at (x1, y
1) and it has slope – 1.
1 1(x , y )
dy
dx = – 1.
– 2

1
(x 1) = – 1.
x1 = 0 or 2
y1 = – 1 or 1
Hence tangent at (0, – 1) and (2, 1) are the required lines (see figure) with equations
– 1(x – 0) = (y + 1) and – 1 (x – 2) = (y – 1)
x + y + 1 = 0 and y + x = 3
Example # 3 Find equation of normal to the curve y = |x2 – | x | | at x = – 2.
Solution : In the neighborhood of x = – 2, y = x2 + x.
Hence the point of contact is (– 2, 2)
dy
dx = 2x + 1
x 2

dx

So the slope of normal at (– 2, 2) is .
Hence equation of normal is

Example # 4 Prove that sum of intercepts of the tangent at any point to the curve represented by x = 3cos4
& y = 3sin4 on the coordinate axis is constant.
Solution : Let P(3cos4 , 3sin4) be a variable point on the given curve.

sum of x-axis intercept and y-axis intercept = 3cos2 + 3sin2= 3 (which is constant)

Tangent and Normal from an external point
Given a point P(a, b) which does not lie on the curve y = f(x), then the equation of possible tangents to
the curve y = f(x), passing through (a, b) can be found by solving for the point of contact Q.
f(h) = f(h) b
h a
And equation of tangent is y – b = f(h) b
h a
(x – a)
Example # 5 Tangent at P(2, 8) on the curve y = x3 meets the curve again at Q.
Find coordinates of Q.
Solution : Equation of tangent at (2, 8) is y = 12x – 16
Solving this with y = x3
x3 – 12x + 16 = 0
This cubic will give all points of intersection of line and
curve y = x3 i.e., point P and Q. (see figure)
But, since line is tangent at P so x = 2 will be a repeated root of equation x3 – 12x + 16 = 0 and
another root will be x = h. Using theory of equations :
sum of roots 2 + 2 + h = 0 h = – 4
Hence coordinates of Q are (– 4, – 64)

Derivative as rate of change
In various fields of applied mathematics one has the quest to know the rate at which one variable is changing, with respect to other. The rate of change naturally refers to time. But we can have rate of change with respect to other variables also.
An economist may want to study how the investment changes with respect to variations in interest rates.
A physician may want to know, how small changes in dosage can affect the body's response to a drug.
A physicist may want to know the rate of charge of distance with respect to time.
All questions of the above type can be interpreted and represented using derivatives.
Definition : The average rate of change of a function f(x) with respect to x over an interval [a, a + h] is
defined as f(a h) f(a)
h
Definition : The instantaneous rate of change of f(x) with respect to x is defined as f(x) =h 0lim
f(a h) f(a)
h
,
provided the limit exists. Note : To use the word 'instantaneous', x may not be representing time. We usually use the word 'rate
of change' to mean 'instantaneous rate of change'.

Error and Approximation :
Let y = f(x) be a function. If these is an error x in x then corresponding error in y is y = f(x + x) – f(x).
We have x 0lim
f(x x) f(x)
x
=
dy
dx = f(x)
We define the differential of y, at point x, corresponding to the increment x as f(x) x and denote it by dy.
i.e. dy = f(x) x.
Let P(x, f(x)), Q((x + x), f(x + x)) (as shown in figure)
y = QS,
x = PS, dy = RS
In many practical situations, it is easier to evaluate dy but not y.
Example # 10. Find the approximate value of 251/3. Sol. Let y = x1/3
Let x = 27 and x = –2
Now y = (x + x)1/3 – x1/3 = (25)1/3 – 3
dy
dx x = 251/3 – 3
At x = 27, 251/3 = 3 – 0.074 = 2.926
Monotonicity of a function :
Let f be a real valued function having domain D(DR) and S be a subset of D. f is said to be
monotonically increasing (non decreasing) (increasing) in S if for every x1, x
2 S, x
1 < x
2 f(x
1) f(x
2). f
is said to be monotonically decreasing (non increasing) (decreasing) in S if for every x1, x
2 S, x
1 < x
2
f(x1) f(x
2)
f is said to be strictly increasing in S if for x1, x
2 S, x
1 < x
2 f(x
1) < f(x
2). Similarly, f is said to be strictly
decreasing in S if for x1, x
2 S, x
1 < x
2 f(x
1) > f(x
2) .
Notes : (i) f is strictly increasing f is monotonically increasing (non decreasing). But converse need not
be true.
(ii) f is strictly decreasing f is monotonically decreasing (non increasing). Again, converse need
not be true.
(iii) If f(x) = constant in S, then f is increasing as well as decreasing in S
(iv) A function f is said to be an increasing function if it is increasing in the domain. Similarly, if f is
decreasing in the domain, we say that f is monotonically decreasing
(v) f is said to be a monotonic function if either it is monotonically increasing or monotonically
decreasing
(vi) If f is increasing in a subset of S and decreasing in another subset of S, then f is non monotonic
in S.
Application of differentiation for detecting monotonicity :
Let be an interval (open or closed or semi open and semi closed)
(i) If f(x) > 0 x , then f is strictly increasing in
(ii) If f(x) < 0 x , then f is strictly decreasing in
Note : Let I be an interval (or ray) which is a subset of domain of f. If f (x) > 0, x except for countably
many points where f (x) = 0, then f(x) is strictly increasing in .
{f (x) = 0 at countably many points f (x) = 0 does not occur on an interval which is a subset of }
Let us consider another function whose graph is shown below for x (a, b).
Here also f(x) 0 for all x (a, b). But, note that in this case, f(x) = 0 holds for all x (c, d) and (e,b).
Thus the given function is increasing (monotonically increasing) in (a, b), but not strictly increasing.
Example # 11 : Let f(x) = x3. Find the intervals of monotonicity.
Solution : f(x) = 3x2
f(x) > 0 everywhere except at x = 0. Hence f(x) will be strictly increasing function for
x R {see figure}
Example # 12 : Let f(x) = x – sinx. Find the intervals of monotonicity.
Solution : f(x) = 1 – cosx
Now, f(x) > 0 every where, except at x = 0, ± 2, ± 4 etc. But all these points are discrete
(countable) and do not form an interval. Hence we can conclude that f(x) is strictly increasing in
R. In fact we can also see it graphically.
Example # 13 : Find the intervals in which f(x) = x3 – 2x2 – 4x + 7 is increasing.
Solution : f(x) = x3 – 2x2 – 4x + 7
f(x) = 3x2 – 4x – 4
f(x) = (x – 2) (3x + 2)
for M.. f(x) 0 x 2

Example # 14 : Find the intervals of monotonicity of the following functions.
(i) f(x) = x2 (x – 2)2 (ii) f(x) = x n x
Solution : (i) f(x) = x2 (x – 2)2 f(x) = 4x (x – 1) (x – 2)
observing the sign change of f(x)
Hence increasing in [0, 1] and in [2, )
and decreasing for x (– , 0] and [1, 2]

f(x) = 1 + n x

Note : If a function f(x) is increasing in (a, b) and f(x) is continuous in [a, b], then f(x) is increasing on

Example # 15 : f(x) = [x] is a step up function. Is it a strictly increasing function for x R.
Solution : No, f(x) = [x] is increasing (monotonically increasing) (non-decreasing), but not strictly
increasing function as illustrated by its graph.
Example # 16 : If f(x) = sin4x + cos4x + bx + c, then find possible values of b and c such that f(x) is monotonic
for all x R
Solution : f(x) = sin4x + cos4x + bx + c
f(x) = 4 sin3x cosx – 4cos3x sinx + b = – sin4x + b.
Case - (i) : for M.I. f(x) 0 for all x R
b sin4x for all x R b 1
Case - (ii) : for M.D. f(x) 0 for all x R

Monotonicity of function about a point :
1. A function f(x) is called as a strictly increasing function about a point (or at a point) a Df if it is strictly
increasing in an open interval containing a (as shown in figure).
2. A function f(x) is called a strictly decreasing function about a point x = a, if it is strictly decreasing in an
open interval containing a (as shown in figure).
Note : If x = a is a boundary point then use the appropriate one sided inequality to test monotonicity of f(x).

Let f(x) be differentiable.
(1) If f(a) > 0 then f(x) is increasing at x = a.
(2) If f(a) < 0 then f(x) is decreasing at x = a.
(3) If f(a) = 0 then examine the sign of f(x) on the left neighbourhood and the right neighbourhood
of a.
(i) If f(x) is positive on both the neighbourhoods, then f is increasing at x = a.
(ii) If f(x) is negative on both the neighbourhoods, then f is decreasing at x = a.
(iii) If f(x) have opposite signs on these neighbourhoods, then f is non-monotonic at x = a.
Example # 18 : Let f(x) = x3 – 3x + 2. Examine the monotonicity of function at points x = 0, 1, 2.

Global Maximum :
A function f(x) is said to have global maximum on a set E if there exists at least one c E such that
f(x) f(c) for all x E.
We say global maximum occurs at x = c and global maximum (or global maximum value) is f(c).
Local Maxima :
A function f(x) is said to have a local maximum at x = c if f(c) is the greatest value of the function in a
small neighbourhood (c – h, c + h), h > 0 of c.
i.e. for all x (c – h, c + h), x c, we have f(x) f(c).
Global Minimum :
A function f(x) is said to have a global minimum on a set E if there exists at least one c E such that
f(x) f(c) for all x E.
Local Minima :
A function f(x) is said to have a local minimum at x = c if f(c) is the least value of the function in a small
neighbourhood (c – h, c + h), h > 0 of c.
i.e. for all x (c –h, c + h), x c, we have f(x) f(c).

A maxima or a minima is called an extrema.
Explanation : Consider graph of y = f(x), x [a, b]

Maxima, Minima for differentiable functions :
Mere definition of maxima, minima becomes tedious in solving problems. We use derivative as a tool to
overcome this difficulty.
A necessary condition for an extrema :
Let f(x) be differentiable at x = c.
Theorem : A necessary condition for f(c) to be an extremum of f(x) is that f(c) = 0.
i.e. f(c) is extremum f(c) = 0
Note : f(c) = 0 is only a necessary condition but not sufficient
i.e. f(c) = 0 f(c) is extremum.
Consider f(x) = x3
f(0) = 0
but f(0) is not an extremum (see figure).
Sufficient condition for an extrema :
Let f(x) be a differentiable function.
Theorem : A sufficient condition for f(c) to be an extremum of f(x) is that f(x) changes sign as x passes through c.
i.e. f(c) is an extrema (see figure) f(x) changes sign as x passes through c.
x = c is a point of maxima. f(x) changes sign from positive to negative.
x = c is a point of local minima (see figure), f(x) changes sign from negative to positive.
Stationary points :
The points on graph of function f(x) where f(x) = 0 are called stationary points.
Rate of change of f(x) is zero at a stationary point.
Example # 21 : Find stationary points of the function f(x) = 4x3 – 6x2 – 24x + 9.
Solution : f(x) = 12x2 – 12x – 24
f(x) = 0 x = – 1, 2
f(– 1) = 23, f(2) = – 31
(– 1, 23), (2, – 31) are stationary points
Example # 22 : If f(x) = x3 + ax2 + bx + c has extreme values at x = – 1 and x = 3. Find a, b, c.
Solution. Extreme values basically mean maximum or minimum values, since f(x) is differentiable
function so
f(– 1) = 0 = f(3)
f(x) = 3x2 + 2ax + b
f(3) = 27 + 6a + b = 0
f(– 1) = 3 – 2a + b = 0
a = – 3, b = – 9, c R

Step - . Solve f(x) = 0, let x = c be a solution. (i.e. Find stationary points)
Step - . Observe change of sign
(i) If f(x) changes sign from negative to positive as x crosses c from left to right then x = c is a
point of local minima
(ii) If f(x) changes sign from positive to negative as x crosses c from left to right then x = c is a
point of local maxima.
(iii) If f(x) does not changes sign as x crosses c then x = c is neither a point of maxima nor minima.
Example # 23 : Find the points of maxima or minima of f(x) = x2 (x – 2)2.
Solution. f(x) = x2 (x – 2)2
f(x) = 4x (x – 1) (x – 2)
f(x) = 0 x = 0, 1, 2
examining the sign change of f(x)
Hence x = 1 is point of maxima, x = 0, 2 are points of minima.
Note : In case of continuous functions points of maxima and minima are alternate.
Example # 24 : Find the points of maxima, minima of f(x) = x3 – 12x. Also draw the graph of this functions.
Solution. f(x) = x3 – 12x
f(x) = 3(x2 – 4) = 3(x – 2) (x + 2)
f(x) = 0 x = ± 2
For tracing the graph let us find maximum and minimum values of f(x).

Example # 25 : Show that f(x) = (x3 – 6x2 + 12x – 8) does not have any point of local maxima or minima. Hence
draw graph
Solution. f(x) = x3 – 6x2 + 12x – 8
f(x) = 3(x2 – 4x + 4)
f(x) = 3(x – 2)2
f(x) = 0 x = 2
but clearly f(x) does not change sign about x = 2. f(2+) > 0 and f(2–) > 0. So f(x) has no point
of maxima or minima. In fact f(x) is a monotonically increasing function for x R.
Example # 26 : Let f(x) = x3 + 3(a – 7)x2 + 3(a2 – 9) x – 1. If f(x) has positive point of maxima, then find possible
values of 'a'.
Solution. f(x) = 3 [x2 + 2(a – 7)x + (a2 – 9)]
Let , be roots of f(x) = 0 and let be the smaller root. Examining sign change of f(x).
Maxima occurs at smaller root which has to be positive. This basically implies that both roots
of f(x) = 0 must be positive and distinct.

Self Practice Problems :
(21) Find the points of local maxima or minima of following functions (i) f(x) = (x – 1)3 (x + 2)2 (ii) f(x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1.
Ans. (i) Maxima at x = – 2, Minima at x = – 4

(ii) No point of local maxima or minima.
Maxima, Minima for continuous functions : Let f(x) be a continuous function. Critical points :
The points where f(x) = 0 or f(x) is not differentiable are called critical points.
Stationary points Critical points.
Example # 27 : Find critical points of f(x) = max (sinx, cosx) , x (0, 2).
Solution :
From the figure it is clear that f(x) has three critical points x = 4
,

,

.
Important Note :
For f(x) defined on a subset of R, points of extrema (if exists) occur at critical points
Example # 28 : Find the possible points of Maxima/Minima for f(x) = |x2 – 2x| (x R)
Solution. f(x) =
2
2

x 2x x 2
2x x 0 x 2
x 2x x 0
f(x) =
2(x 1) x 2
2(1 x) 0 x 2
2(x 1) x 0
f(x) = 0 at x = 1 and f(x) does not exist at x = 0, 2. Thus these are critical points.
Example # 29 : Let f(x) =3 2x x 10x x 0
3sinx x 0
. Examine the behaviour of f(x) at x = 0.
Solution : f(x) is continuous at x = 0.
f(x) = 23x 2x 10 x 0
3cosx x 0
f(0+) = 3 and f(0–) = – 10 thus f(x) is non-differentiable at x = 0 x = 0 is a critical point.
Also derivative changes sign from negative to positive, so x = 0 is a point of local minima.
Example # 30 : Find the critical points of the function f(x) = 4x3 – 6x2 – 24x + 9 if (i) x [0, 3] (ii) x [–3, 3]
(iii) x [– 1, 2].
Solution : f(x) = 12(x2 – x – 2)
= 12(x – 2) (x + 1)
f(x) = 0 x = – 1 or 2
(i) if x [0, 3] , x = 2 is critical point.
(ii) if x [– 3, 3], then we have two critical points x = – 1, 2.
(iii) If x [– 1, 2], then no critical point as both x = –1 and x = 2 become boundary points.
Note : Critical points are always interior points of an interval.

Example # 31 : Find the greatest and least values of f(x) = x3 – 12x x [– 1, 3]
Solution : The possible points of maxima/minima are critical points and the boundary points.
for x [– 1, 3] and f(x) = x3 – 12x
x = 2 is the only critical point.

Maxima, Minima by higher order derivatives :
Second derivative test :
Let f(x) have derivatives up to second order
Step - I. Find f(x)
Step - II. Solve f(x) = 0. Let x = c be a solution
Step - III. Find f(c) Step - IV.
(i) If f(c) = 0 then further investigation is required
(ii) If f(c) > 0 then x = c is a point of minima.
(iii) If f(c) < 0 then x = c is a point of maxima.
For maxima f(x) changes from positive to negative (as shown in figure).
f(x) is decreasing hence f(c) < 0
Example # 34 : Find the points of local maxima or minima for f(x) = sin2x – x, x (0, ).

nth Derivative test :
Let f(x) have derivatives up to nth order
If f(c) = f(c) = ..........= fn–1(c) = 0 and
fn(c) 0 then we have following possibilities
(i) n is even, f(n)(c) < 0 x = c is point of maxima
(ii) n is even, f(n)(c) > 0 x = c is point of minima.
(iii) n is odd, f(n)(c) < 0 f(x) is decreasing about x = c
(iv) n is odd, f(n) > 0 f(x) is increasing about x = c.
Example # 35 : Find points of local maxima or minima of f(x) = x5 – 5x4 + 5x3 – 1
Solution. f(x) = x5 – 5x4 + 5x3 – 1
f(x) = 5x2 (x – 1) (x – 3)
f(x) = 0 x = 0, 1, 3
f(x) = 10x (2x2 – 6x + 3)
Now, f(1) < 0 Maxima at x = 1
f(3) > 0 Minima at x = 3
and, f(0) = 0 nd derivative test fails
so, f(x) = 30 (2x2 – 4x + 1)
f(0) = 30
Neither maxima nor minima at x = 0.
Note : It was very convenient to check maxima/minima at first step by examining the sign change of
f(x) no sign change of f(x) at x = 0
f(x) = 5x2 (x – 1) (x – 3)
Application of Maxima, Minima :
For a given problem, an objective function can be constructed in terms of one parameter and then
extremum value can be evaluated by equating the differential to zero. As discussed in n th derivative test
maxima/minima can be identified.

Example # 37 : Find two positive numbers x and y such that x + y = 60 and xy3 is maximum.
Solution : x + y = 60
x = 60 – y xy3 = (60 – y)y3
Let f(y) = (60 – y) y3 ; y (0, 60)
for maximizing f(y) let us find critical points
f(y) = 3y2 (60 – y) – y3 = 0
f(y) = y2 (180 – 4y) = 0
y = 45
f(45+) < 0 and f(45–) > 0. Hence local maxima at y = 45.
So x = 15 and y = 45.

Example # 40 : Let A(1, 2) and B(– 2, – 4) be two fixed points. A variable point P is chosen on the straight line
y = x such that perimeter of PAB is minimum. Find coordinates of P.
Solution. Since distance AB is fixed so for minimizing the perimeter of PAB, we basically have to minimize (PA + PB)
Let A be the mirror image of A in the line y = x (see figure). F(P) = PA + PB
F(P) = PA + PB
But for PAB
PA + PB AB and equality hold when P, A and B becomes collinear. Thus for minimum path
length point P is that special point for which PA and PB become incident and reflected rays with respect to the mirror y = x.
Equation of line joining A and B is y = 2x intersection of this line with y = x is the point P.
Hence P (0, 0).
Note : Above concept is very useful because such problems become very lengthy by making
perimeter as a function of position of P and then minimizing it.

Use of monotonicity for proving inequalities
Comparison of two functions f(x) and g(x) can be done by analysing the monotonic behaviour of
h(x) = f(x) – g(x)

Now cos x + sec x – 2 = 2

Rolle’s Theorem :
If a function f defined on [a, b] is
(i) continuous on [a, b]
(ii) derivable on (a, b) and
(iii) f(a) = f(b),
then there exists at least one real number c between a and b (a < c < b) such that f(c) = 0
Geometrical Explanation of Rolle’s Theorem :
Let the curve y = f(x), which is continuous on [a, b] and derivable on (a, b), be drawn (as shown in
figure).
A(a, f(a)), B(b, f(b)), f(a) = f(b), C(c, f(c)), f(c) = 0.

The theorem simply states that between two points with equal ordinates on the graph of f(x), there
exists at least one point where the tangent is parallel to x-axis.
Algebraic Interpretation of Rolle’s Theorem :
Between two zeros a and b of f(x) (i.e. between two roots a and b of f(x) = 0) there exists at least one
zero of f(x)
Example # 47 : If 2a + 3b + 6c = 0 then prove that the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 has at least one real root
between 0 and 1.
Solution : Let f(x) = 3ax
3 +
2bx
2 + cx
f(0) = 0 and f(1) = a
3 +
b
2 + c = 2a + 3b + 6c = 0
If f(0) = f(1) then f(x) = 0 for some value of x (0, 1)
ax2 + bx + c = 0 for at least one x (0, 1)
Self Practice Problems :
(33) If f(x) satisfies condition in Rolle’s theorem then show that between two consecutive zeros of
f(x) there lies at most one zero of f(x).
(34) Show that for any real numbers , the polynomial P(x) = x7 + x3 + , has exactly one real root.
Lagrange’s Mean Value Theorem (LMVT) :
If a function f defined on [a, b] is
(i) continuous on [a, b] and
(ii) derivable on (a, b)
then there exists at least one real numbers between a and b (a < c < b) such that f(b) f(a)
b a
= f(c)
Proof : Let us consider a function g(x) = f(x) + x, x [a, b]
where is a constant to b determined such that g(a) = g(b).
= – f(b) f(a)
b a
Now the function g(x), being the sum of two continuous and derivable functions it self
(i) continuous on [a, b]
(ii) derivable on (a, b) and
(iii) g(a) = g(b).
Therefore, by Rolle’s theorem there exists a real number c (a, b) such that g(c) = 0
But g(x) = f(x) +
0 = g(c) = f(c) +
f(c) = – = f(b) f(a)
b a
Geometrical Interpretation of LMVT :
The theorem simply states that between two points A and B of the graph of f(x) there exists at least one
point where tangent is parallel to chord AB.
C(c, f(c)), f(c) = slope of AB.
Alternative Statement : If in the statement of LMVT, b is replaced by a + h, then number c between a
and b may be written as a + h, where 0 < < 1. Thus
f(a h) f(a)
h
= f(a + h) or f(a + h) = f(a) + hf (a + h), 0 < < 1
Example # 48 : Verify LMVT for f(x) = – x2 + 4x – 5 and x [–1, 1]
Solution : f(1) = –2 ; f(–1) = –10
f(c) = f(1) f( 1)
1 ( 1)
–2c + 4 = 4 c = 0

then 2
b a
1 b
< tan–1 b – tan–1 a <
2
b a
1 a
Solution : Let f(x) = tan–1 x ; x [a, b] applying LMVT
f(c) = 1 1tan b tan a
b a
for a < c < b and f(x) =
21 x
,
Now f(x) is a monotonically decreasing function
Hence if a < c < b

= 0, f 5
4
= 0 & f(3) = 4 then
show that there exists a c (0, 2) such that f(c) + sinc – cosc < 0.
Solution : Consider g(x) = f(x) – sinx + cosx
g'(x) = f'(x) – cosx – sinx
g"(x) = f"(x) + sinx – cosx

Also (0) = f(0) – 2g(0) = 2 – 0 = 2
(23) = f(23) – 2g(23) = 22 – 20 = 2
Since f(x) and g(x) are differentiable in [0, 23] hence (x) is also continous in [0, 23] and differentiable in
[0, 23], so all the conditions of Rolle's theorem are satisfied. Hence there exist a number c, 0 < c < 23
for which '(x) = 0
F-8. f(a) = f(b) = 0 and we know sin3x, xex, 2

Similarly considering g(t) = sin t in [x, y] we get siny sinx

27_. (A) Apply L. M. V. T. in (a, a + 6) we get f' (c) = f(a 6) – f(a)

If d is approaching to infinity then f'(c) approaches to zero. And (f'(0))2 [76, 85], Also f' (x) is
continuous function. So (f'(x))2 can take all real value from (0, 76]
(C) By using option (A) we get there exist a value x0 (–6, 0) such that (f'(x))2 1
also f(x0)2 9 (f'(x0))2 + (f(x0))2 10
But f(x))2 + (f'(x)2 is continuous function and (f(0)2 + (f'(0)2 = 85 hence there exists [x0, 0]
such that (f'())2 + (f())2 = 10 there exist (– 6, 0) such that (f'())2 + (f())2 = 10.
(D) Similarly by using option (C) we say that there exists (0, 6) such that (f())2 + (f'())2 = 10
Assume H(x) = (f(x))2 + (f'(x))2 where H(0) = 85
Let p is largest negative number lies between (–6, 0) such that H(p) = 10
Similarly let q is smallest positive number lies between (0, 6) such that H(q) = 10
Apply Rolle's in H (x) in interval (p, q) we get there exists r in (p, q) such that H'(r) = 0
2f'(r) (f(r) + f" (r)) = 0
Because in (p, q), (f(x))2 9 & H(x) 10
(f'(x))2 1 f'(r) 0 f(r) + f"(r) = 0 |f(r)| = |f"(r)|
(E) There exist one c (–3, 3) such that f'(c) = )3(–f–)3(f
[–1,1] and f'(0)2 [76, 85]
let f'(0) 76 then f'(x) is mix up of increasing as well as decreasing function

From column 1 : I and II are correct.

22. f(x) > 0 for all x R, f(1/2) = 1/2, f(1) = 1
f(x) increases
Let g(x) = f(x) – x , x [1/2,1]
Then g(x) = 0 has atleast one real root in (1/2, 1)
f(x) = 1 has atleast one real root in (1/2, 1)

f2(0) + (f(0)2) = 85
and xlim f(x)

(D) Consider H(x) = f2(x) + (f(x)2
H(0) = 85
By (B) choice there exists some x0 such that (f(x0))2 1 for some x0 in (-4, 0)
hence H(x0) = f2(x0) + (f(x0))2 4 + 1
H(x0) 5
Hence let p (-4, 0) for which H(p) = 5
(note that we have considered p as largest such negative number)
similarly let q be smallest positive number (0, 4) such that H(q) = 5
Hence By Rolle's theorem is (p, q)
H(c) = 0 for some c (–4, 4) and since H(x) is greater than 5 as we move from x = p
to x = q and f2(x) 4 (f(x))2 1 in (p, q) Thus H(c) = 0 ff + ff = 0
so f + f = 0 and f 0

So, range of f(x) is R. So option (A) is correct f"(1–) = 2 and f"(1+) = – 4
so f'(x) is non-diff at x = 1 so option (B) is correct f'(x) has local maxima at x = 1 so option (C) is correct

9. Consider f(x) – 2g(x) = h(x)
Then, h(x) is continuous and differentiable in [0, 1]
Also h(0) = 2 & h(1) = 2
Hence h(x) satisfies conditions of Rolles Theorem in (0, 1)
Thus, There exist a 'c' such that h'(c) = 0 where c (0, 1)
f'(c) = 2g'(c)

as P(x) is a polynomial function in x hence it is everywhere continous and differentiable
also P(0) = 0 + k = k ; P(10071/2011) = k

f(c) g(c) – f(c) g(c) = 0

Hence our supposition that g(x) has no zero is wrong g(x) has at least one zero.
