Mathematics Question on Continuity and differentiability
If y=(1−cos2θ1+cos2θ) , then dθdy at θ=43π is:
A
-2
B
2
C
±
D
none of these
Answer
-2
Explanation
Solution
y=(1−cos2θ1+cos2θ) , ⇒y=2sin2θ2cos2θ=cot2θ ⇒y=cotθ Differentiate w.r.t. ′θ′, we get dθdy=−cosec2θ Now , (dθdy)θ=43π =−cosec2(43π) =−cosec2(π−4π) =−cosec24π =−2(∵sin4π=21)
