Q44 / 93 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Mathematics · Continuity and Differentiability

Let fx=1+sin⁡xlsin⁡x,-π6<x<0etan⁡2xtan⁡3x,0<x<π6m,x=0 is continuous at x=0. Then, the values of l and m are

  • A
    l=-23,m=e23
  • B
    l=23,m=e-23
  • Correct answer
    C
    l=23,m=e23
  • D
    None of these

Solution

We have,
limh→0+⁡f0-h=limh→0+⁡1+sin⁡-hlsin⁡-h
=limh→0+⁡1+sin⁡hlsin⁡h
=limh→0+⁡1+sin⁡h1sin⁡hl=el
limh→0+⁡f0+h=limh→0+⁡etan⁡2htan⁡3h
=elimh→0+⁡tan⁡2h2h×23×3htan⁡3h=e1×23×1=e23

Also, f0=m
For fx to be continuous at x=0, we must have
limh→0+⁡f0-h=limh→0+⁡f0+h=f0⇒el=e23=m
⇒l=23 and m=e23

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
