Explanation:
Let
And u = cos -1(2x2 – 1)
⇒ \(\frac{d u}{d x}=\frac{4 x}{\sqrt{1-\left(2 x^{2}-1\right)^{2}}}\)
⇒ \(\frac{d u}{d x}=-\frac{4 x}{\sqrt{1-4 x^{4}+4 x^{2}-1}}\)
⇒ \(\frac{d u}{d x}=-\frac{4 x}{\sqrt{1-4 x^{4}+4 x^{2}-1}}\)
⇒ \(\frac{d u}{d x}=-\frac{4 x}{\sqrt{-4 x^{4}+4 x^{2}}}\)

And υ = cos-1x
\(\frac{d v}{d x}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}\)
thus, \(\frac{d v}{d x}\) = 2

Assertion (A): sin xl is continuous for all x R.
Reason (R): sin x and 1×1 are continuous in R.
Answer:
(A) Both A and R are true and R is the corred ep1anation of A
Explanation:
sin x and 1×1 are continuous in R.
hence R is true.
Consider the functions f(x) = sin x and g(x) = |x| both of which are continuous ¡n R.
gof (x) – g(f(x)) = g(sin x) – |sin x|
Since f(x) and g(x) are continuous in R. gof(x) is

Explanation:
g(x) – x2 is a polynomial function. It is continuous for afl x ∈ R.
Hence R is frue.
f(x) = tan x is not defined when x = \(\frac {π}{2}\)
Therefore f(\(\frac {π}{2}\))does not exist and hence f(x) is not continuous at x =\(\frac {π}{2}\)
A is false.
MCQs On Continuity And Differentiability Question 3.
Consider the function
which is continuous at x = 0.
Assertion (A): The rue of k is -3.
Reason (R):
Answer:
(A) Both A and R are true and R is the corred ep1anation of A
Explanation:
This is the definition for modulus function and
hence true.
Hence R is true.
Since f is continuous at x = 0,
\(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{+}} f(x)=f(0)\)
Here f(0) = 3,
\(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{+}} f(x)=f(0)\)
LHL = \(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x)\)
= \(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} \frac{k x}{|x|}=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}-x} \frac{k x}{-x}=-k\)
∴ -k = 3 or k = 3
Hence A Is true.
R is the correct explanation of A.

\(\lim _{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{(x+5)(x-2)}{x-2}=k\)
∴ K = 7
MCQ On Continuity And Differentiability Pdf Question 5.
Assertion (A): | sin x| is continuous at x = 0
Reason (R): |sin x| is differentiable at x = 0.
Answer:
(C) A is true but R is false
Explanation:
Since sin x and |x| are continuous functions in R, |sin x| is continuous at x = 0.
Hence A is true.
|sin x| = \(\begin{cases}-\sin x, & \text { if } x<0 \\ \sin x, & \text { if } x \geq 0\end{cases}\)
f (0) = |sin 0| = 0
LHD = f(0–) = \(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{-\sin x-0}{x}\) = -1
RHÐ = f (0–) = \(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin x-0}{x}\) = 1
At x = 0, LHD ≠ RHD.
So f(x) is not differentiable at x = 0.
Hence Ris is false..

Assertion (A):ftx) [xJ is not differentiable at x 2.
Reason (R): f(x) = [xJ is not continuous at x = 2.
Answer:
(A) Both A and R are true and R is the corred ep1anation of A
Explanation:
f(x) = [x] is not continuous when x is an integet
So f [x] is not continuous at x = 2. Hence R is true.
A differentiable function is always continuous.
Since f(x) [x] is not continuous at x – 2, it is
also not differentiable at x = 2.
Hence A is true.
R is the correct explanation of A.
Question 7.
Assertion (A): A continuous function is always differentiable.
Reason (R): A differentiable function is always continuous,
Answer:
(D) A is false and R is True
Explanation:
The function f(x) is differentiable at
x = a, If it is continuous at x = a and
LHD = RHD at x = a.
A differentiable function Is always continuous.
Hence R is true.
A continuous function need not be always differentiable.
For example, |x| is continuous at x = 0, but not differentiable at x = 0.
Hence A is laise.
Question 8.
Assertion (A): If y = sin-1 (6 × \(\sqrt{1-9 x^{2}}\)), then \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{1-9 x^{2}}}\)
Reason (R): sin-1(6 x \(\sqrt{1-9 x^{2}}\)) = sin-1(sin 2x)
Answer:
(C) A is true but R is false
Explanation:
put 3x = sin θ or θ = sin-1 3x
y = sin-1(6 x \(\sqrt{1-9 x^{2}}\)) = sin-1(sin 2θ)
= 2θ
= 2 sin-1 3x
∴ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{1-9 x^{2}}}\)
A is,true. R is false.
