Question Number 133994 by benjo_mathlover last updated on 26/Feb/21

Given a function f satisfies   f(x)= { ((x+a(√2) sin x ; 0≤x<(π/4))),((2x cot x +b ; (π/4)≤x≤(π/2))),((a cos 2x−bsin x ; (π/2)<x≤π)) :}   continuous in [ 0,π ], then find  the value of a and b.

Givenafunctionfsatisfies f(x)={x+a2sinx;0x<π42xcotx+b;π4xπ2acos2xbsinx;π2<xπ continuousin[0,π],thenfind thevalueofaandb.

 (1) f(x) must be continuous at x = (π/4)   lim_(x→π/4^− )  f(x) = lim_(x→π/4^+ ) f(x)   ⇒ (π/4) +a(√2) .((√2)/2) = 2.(π/4).1 +b   ⇒ a−b = (π/4) ...(i)  (2) f(x) also must be continuous at x=(π/2)   lim_(x→π/2^− ) f(x)=lim_(x→π/2^+ ) f(x)  ⇒ 0 + b = a(−1)−b ; a+2b =0...(ii)  (i)−(ii) : −3b = (π/4) ; b=−(π/(12)) and a= (π/6)
