Question
Verify Rolle's theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals

$\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos2\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)\text{ on }\Big[0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big]$

Answer

The given function is $\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos2\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)$

$=\cos\Big(2\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)=\sin2\text{x}.$

Thus, we have to show that there exists $\text{c}\in\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$ such that f'(c) = 0.

We have

$\text{f}(\text{x})=\sin2\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=2\cos2\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=0$

$\Rightarrow2\cos2\text{x}=0$

$\Rightarrow\cos2\text{x}=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{4}$

Thus, $\text{c}=\frac{\pi}{4}\in\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=0.$

Hence, Rolle's theorem is verified .
