What is the number of critical points of f(x)=max(sinx,cosx) in the intervasl (-2π,2π)?

Question

Ajay · Answer

First you need to draw graph for max (sinx, cosx ) as follows Draw combined graphs of both sinx and cos x so that at some places graph of sin x will be higher and at other cosx will higher. Take only the higher portion of graph and mark it bold. This will give you the graph of f(x)=max(sinx,cosx). Critical points are points on graph where the derivative is 0 or undefined. Now you can easily check the points which are high or low (critical points). The number of such points comes out to be 7
