33 Prove that the function f(x) = cos x is :
i. strictly decreasing on (0, π)
ii. strictly increasing in (π, 2π)
iii. neither increasing nor decreasing in (0, 2 π)
Given f(x) =cos x
(i) Since for each x (
),sin x > 0
⇒
So f is strictly decreasing in (0,)
(ii) Since for each x (
),sin x <0
⇒
So f is strictly increasing in (,2
)
(iii) Clearly from (1) and (2) above, f is neither increasing nor decreasing in (0,)
