Q.

The maximum value of the function f(x)=sinx1-cos2x+cosx1-sin2x+tanxsec2x-1+cotxcosec2x-1

wherever it is defined is k. Then |k| is

1 4  
2 – 2  
3 0  
4 2  

Ans.

(1)

f(x)=sinx1-cos2x+cosx1-sin2x+tanxsec2x-1+cotxcosec2x-1

=sinx|sinx|+cosx|cosx|+tanx|tanx|+cotx|cotx|={4,x∈1st quadrant-2,x∈2nd quadrant0,x∈3rd quadrant-2,x∈4th quadrant            

f(x)max=4
