Question
The function $\text{f(x)}=|\cos\text{x}|$ is:
  1. Everywhere continuous and differentiable.
  2. Everywhere continuous but not differentiable at $(2\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{2},\text{n}\in\text{Z}$
  3. Neither continuous nor differentiable at $(2\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{2},\text{n}\in\text{Z}$
  4. None of these.

Answer

  1. Everywhere continuous but not differentiable at $(2\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{2},\text{n}\in\text{Z}$

Solution:

As cos x is even function it is continuous everywhere but not differentiable at $(2\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{2},\text{n}\in\text{Z}$

$\cos\Big[(2\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{2}=\cos\Big(\text{n}\pi+\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)=-\sin\text{n}\pi$

For n as an integer $\Rightarrow\sin\text{n}\pi=0$

For n as rational $\Rightarrow\sin\text{n}\pi=-1$
