First
dy/dx =2cosx - 4cos x sinx
dy/dx = 2[cosx - sin2x]
Critical points
dy/dx = 0
cosx = sin2x
sinx = 1/2
x = pi/6
Now draw the number line
On drawing the number line we get that it is increasing before pi/6 and decreasing atfer pi/6 Therefore at pi/6 the F(x) is greatest.
Since it is differentiable at all points hence it is continuous at all points form 0 to pi/2
hence the ans is A,C,D

1 + 2 sin x + 2 cos2x

=3+2 sin x - 2 sin2x

=-2(sin2x-sinx +1/4)+7/2
=-2(sinx - 1/2)2+7/2
the maximum value is 7/2 taken at sin x = 1/2

and nimimum value is taken when sin x=-1

Ronald.. think of how the last part can be wrong..

D is absolutely correct.. :)

D is wrong since LHL ≠RHL at 0

what do you mean by rhl not equl..

The function is sum of 2 functions which are all continuous..!!!

Am i sleeping?
