f(x)= a tan' (1/x-4), 0 pi/2 ,x=4 b tan'(2/x-4) ,4 sin'(7-x) + a*pi/4 , 6 find a n b if f(x) is continous at [0,8] basically i wanna know how to solve such a prob. whr a function is defind under differnt domains n check for continuity n differntibility P.S. i dont know how to look for diffrntiablility ie (lhd /rhd) plz hlppppp
Dear student, We will learn about differentiability , and the various factors affecting differentiability. We have already defined the derivative of a function f(x) at a particular point 'a' and derivative of f(x) in general for the variable x as f(a) and f(x) respectively. The restriction in both the cases is that 'the limit must exist'. If does not exist, then we say that the function is not differentiable. If the above limit exists, we say the function f(x) is differentiable. In order to test the differentiability of a function at a point, the right hand derivative and left hand derivatives are introduced as follows: Right Hand Derivative Let f be a function of x (y=f(x)). Let a be a point in the domain of f. The RHD of f at a is defined as where h>0, provided the limit exists. Left Hand Derivative The LHD of f at a is defined as where h>0, provided the limit exists. In the above definition showiing differentiabilty, substitute a + h = x, then h = x - a as Rf '(a) can be rewritten as Similarly, substitute a - h = x. Lf '(a) can be written as Differentiability at a Point Diffferentiability at a point 'a' for a function f(x) if (i) both Rf '(a) and Lf '(a) exists and finite. (ii) Rf '(a) = Lf '(a) Consider the function y=|x|. This function is differentiable on (,0) and (0,), but not differentiable at x = 0. For x>0, we have Since the limit exists, f(x) is differentiable at x>0. Similarly, we can show that f(x) is differentiable at x<0. We shall find RHD and LHD of f(x) at x = 0. = -1 Therefore y = |x| is not differentiable at x = 0.
Dear student,
We will learn about differentiability , and the various factors affecting differentiability. We have already defined the derivative of a function f(x) at a particular point 'a' and derivative of f(x) in general for the variable x as f(a) and f(x) respectively.

If
does not exist, then we say that the function is not differentiable.
If the above limit exists, we say the function f(x) is differentiable.
In order to test the differentiability of a function at a point, the right hand derivative and left hand derivatives are introduced as follows:
Let f be a function of x (y=f(x)). Let a be a point in the domain of f. The RHD of f at a is defined as
where h>0, provided the limit exists.
The LHD of f at a is defined as
In the above definition showiing differentiabilty, substitute a + h = x, then h = x - a as
Rf '(a) can be rewritten as
Similarly, substitute a - h = x. Lf '(a) can be written as
Diffferentiability at a point 'a' for a function f(x) if
(i) both Rf '(a) and Lf '(a) exists and finite.
(ii) Rf '(a) = Lf '(a)
Consider the function y=|x|. This function is differentiable on (,0) and (0,), but not differentiable at x = 0.
For x>0, we have
Since the limit exists, f(x) is differentiable at x>0. Similarly, we can show that f(x) is differentiable at x<0.
We shall find RHD and LHD of f(x) at x = 0.
= -1
Therefore y = |x| is not differentiable at x = 0.
