Dear Pawan
 
f’(x) = 2x (2 –2 cos x) – 4x sin x / (2 – 2 cosx)^2
 
 = 4x – 4x ( sin x + cos x) / (2- 2 cos)^2
 
hence it is always positive, hence increasing
 
similarly
 
g’(x) = 2x (6x – 6 sin x) – (6 – 6 cosx)x^2 / (6x- 6 sinx)^2
 = it will always be negative.

f’(x)=2x[1- cos x]+x^2 sin x / 2(1- cos x)^2
as 1-cos x and sin x both are positive function is increasing
g’(x)= 2x[x- sin x] -x^2[1-cos x]/6(x- sin x)^2
and in 0 to 1 2x>x^2 therefore function is decreasing
