If f’(x) = a sin x + b cos x and f’(0) = 4, f(0) = 3, , find f(x).

Given f’(x) = a sin x + b cos x and f’(0) = 4


On substituting x = 0 in f’(x), we get


f’(0) = asin0 + bcos0


4 = a × 0 + b × 1


4 = 0 + b


b = 4


Hence, f’(x) = a sin x + 4 cos x


On integrating this equation, we have



We know





Recall and




On substituting x = 0 in f(x), we get


f(0) = –acos0 + 4sin0 + c


3 = –a × 1 + 4 × 0 + c


3 = –a + c


c – a = 3 -------------- (1)


On substituting in f(x), we get



5 = –a × 0 + 4 × 1 + c


5 = 0 + 4 + c


5 = 4 + c


c = 1


On substituting c = 1 in equation (1), we get


1 – a = 3


a = 1 – 3


a = –2


On substituting the values of c and a in f(x), we get


f(x) = –(–2)cos x + 4sinx + 1


f(x) = 2cosx + 4sinx + 1


Thus, f(x) = 2cosx + 4sinx + 1
