Q100 / 160 · WBJEE 2010 · Mathematics
The domain of the function $f(x)=\sqrt{\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1-|x|}{2}\right)}$ is
- A$(-3,3)$
- Correct answerB$[-3,3]$
- C$(-\infty,-3) \mathrm{U}(3, \infty)$
- D$(-\infty,-3] \mathrm{U}[3, \infty)$
Solution
Hints: $f(x)=\sqrt{\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1-|x|}{2}\right)}$
$$
-1 \leq \frac{1-|\mathrm{x}|}{2} \leq 1 \Rightarrow-2-1 \leq-|\mathrm{x}| \leq 2-1 \Rightarrow-3 \leq-|\mathrm{x}| \leq 1 \Rightarrow-1 \leq \mathrm{x} \mid \leq 3 \Rightarrow \mathrm{x} \in[-3,3]
$$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
