A Correct answer
Explanation

Let $y = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\sqrt {\dfrac{{1 + \cos x}}{{1 - \cos x}}} $

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\sqrt {\dfrac{{2{{\cos }^2}\dfrac{x}{2}}}{{2{{\sin }^2}\dfrac{x}{2}}}} $
$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\cot \left( {\dfrac{x}{2}} \right)$
$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\tan \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{2} - \dfrac{x}{2}} \right)} \right]$
$ = \dfrac{\pi }{2} - \dfrac{x}{2}$
$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{dy}}{{dx}} =  - \dfrac{1}{2}$

C Correct answer
Explanation
$\displaystyle y=\frac{1+x^{2}+x^{4}}{1+x+x^{2}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{(2x+4x^{3})(1+x+x^{2})-(1+2x)(1+x^{2}+x^{4})}{(1+x^{2}+x^{4}+2x+2x^{2}+2x^{3})}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x+2x^{2}+2x^{3}+4x^{3}+4x^{4}+4x^{5}-1-x^{2}-x^{4}-2x-2x^{3}-2x^{5}}{(x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1)}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x^{5}+3x^{4}+4x^{3}+x^{2}-1}{(x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1)}$

$\displaystyle (\frac{dy}{dx})=\frac{(2x^{5}+4x^{4}+6x^{3}+4x^{2}+2x)-(x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1)}{(x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1)}$

$\displaystyle (\frac{dy}{dx})=\frac{2x[x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1]}{(x^{4}+2x^{3}+3x^{2}+2x+1)}-1$

$\displaystyle (\frac{dy}{dx})=2x-1= ax+b$

$\Rightarrow a=2$ & $b=-1$

Differential coefficient of $\log\ \sin x$ is :

  1. $\cos x$
  2. $\tan x$
  3. $\text{cosec} \,x$
  4. $\cot x$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

We have,

$y=\log \sin x$

On differentiating w.r.t $x$, we get
$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d(\log \sin x)}{dx}$
$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{\sin x}\times \cos x$
$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}$
$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\cot x$

Hence, this is the answer.

D Correct answer
Explanation

f(x) = sqrt((x-1)^2) = |x-1|. The derivative of |x-1| is 1 for x > 1 and -1 for x < 1. The derivative is undefined at x = 1.

The value of sin $ 2^o $ is approximately

  1. $ 2^o $
  2. $0.035$
  3. $ \frac {\pi}{180} $
  4. $0.017$

B Correct answer
Explanation

For small angles in radians, sin(x) is approximately x. 2 degrees = 2 * (pi/180) radians = pi/90 radians. pi/90 is approximately 3.14159 / 90 = 0.0349, which rounds to 0.035.

Derivative of $(\sin x)^x + \sin^{-1} \sqrt{x}$ with respect to $x$ is

  1. $(x \cot x + \log \sin x) + \dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x - x^2}}$
  2. $(x \cot x + \log \sin x) + \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x - x^2}}$
  3. $(\sin x)^x (x \cot x + \log \,x) + \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x - x^2}}$
  4. $(\sin x)^x (x \cot x + \log \sin x) + \dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x - x^2}}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Let $y=(\sin x)^x$

$\Rightarrow \log y=x \log (\sin x)$
Now differentiating both sides with respect to $x$ 
$\dfrac{1}{y}\dfrac{dy}{dx}=x\cot x+\log \sin x$
or, $\dfrac{dy}{dx}=(\sin x )^x{x\cot x+\log \sin x}$........(1).
Again let $z=(\sin x)^x+\sin^{-1}\sqrt{x}$
Now differentiating both sides with respect to $x$.
$\dfrac{dz}{dx}=\dfrac{dy}{dx}+\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-x}}.\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$
$\dfrac{dz}{dx}=(\sin x)^x{x\cot x+\log \sin x}+\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x-x^2}}$ [Using (1)]
