JEE Advanced 2011 · Continuity and Differentiability
If f(x)=⎩⎨⎧−x−2π,−cosx,x−1,lnx,x≤−2π−2π<x≤00<x≤1x>1, then
Answers:A. f(x) is continuous at x=−2π · B. f(x) is not differentiable at x=0 · C. f(x) is differentiable at x=1 · D. f(x) is differentiable at x=−23
If f(x) = -x - π/2, x ≤ -π/2
-cos x, -π/2 < x ≤ 0
x - 1, 0 < x ≤ 1
ln x, x > 1 , then
