Let and be functions defined by
(i) ,
(ii) , where the inverse trigonometric function assumes values in ,
(iii) , where, for denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to ,
(iv) .
LIST-ILIST-II
P.The function is1.NOT continuous at
Q.The function is2.continuous at and NOT differentiable at
R.The function is3.differentiable at and its derivative is NOT continuous at
S.The function is4.differentiable at and its derivative is continuous at

The correct option is:
  1. (A)
  2. (B)
  3. (C)
  4. (D)✓ Correct

Answer: (D)

Solution

****: Continuous at (both limits and value are 0). RHD = 1, LHD = -1, so not differentiable. P → 2

****: LHL = , RHL = , . Not continuous. Q → 1

****: Both LHL and RHL at are 0, and . Continuous. Both LHD and RHD are 0, so differentiable. The derivative is 0 in a neighborhood of 0, so the derivative is continuous. R → 4

****: Standard result: is continuous and differentiable at , but is not continuous at . S → 3
