Determine the values of a, b, c for which the function is continuous at x = 0.
Given:
f(x) is continuous at x = 0
For f(x) to be continuous at x = 0,f(0)– = f(0) + = f(0)
LHL = f(0)– =
1
(a + 1) + 1
(a + 1) + 1
f(0)–a + 2 ...... (1)
RHL = f(0 + ) =
Take the complex conjugate of
,
i.e, and multiply it with numerator and denominator.
(a + b)(a–b) = a2– b2
f(0) + ...... (2)
since, f(x) is continuous at x = 0,From (1) & (2),we get,
a + 2 =
a =
–2
a =
Also,
f(0)– = f(0) + = f(0)
f(0) = c
c = a + 2 =
c =
So the values of a = ,c =
and b = R–{o}(any real number except 0 )
