Let M and m respectively be the maximum and the minimum values of f(x)=|1+sin2xcos2x4sin4xsin2x1+cos2x4sin4xsin2xcos2x1+4sin4x|, x∈R. Then M4–m4 is equal to : [2025]
(4)
f(x)=|1+sin2xcos2x4sin4xsin2x1+cos2x4sin4xsin2xcos2x1+4sin4x|
=|2cos2x4sin4x21+cos2x4sin4x1cos2x1+4sin4x| (Applying C1→C1+C2)
=|2cos2x4sin4x0101cos2x1+4sin4x| (Applying R2→R2–R1)
Expanding along R2, we get f(x) = 2(1 + 4 sin 4x) – 4 sin 4x
⇒ f(x)=2+4sin4x
Maximum value of f(x), M = 6
Minimum value of f(x), m = –2
∴ M4–m4=1280.
