Discuss the continuity of SIN function.Please explain!
think of this as a thumb rule if the differntial of the given function is defined every where then the given function is continuous every where differentiating sinx you get cosx which is defined for every x so SIN is continuous every where
Can we not prove it mathematically,if yes then how?
You have to show that for any \(\varepsilon>0\), there is a \(\delta>0\) such that \(|x-c|<\delta\) implies \(|\sin x-\sin c|<\varepsilon\).
this is very tough which u have replied, I can't get through it.please tell in easy way
for checking where would function be discountous think of for some asymptoes if there is any then it is discontinuous like TAN is discontinuos when COS become ) .Now when does cos become 0 these will be your retricemptoes
*when COS become 0
k!
This question is very subjective: you can say that since \(\sin\) is differentiable, it must be continuous.
But we can't figure out any for sinx try it for others you will get Tell me when will SEC be discontinuous
may I send u solution, then will u make me understand that?
No ...... thats not true as TAN is differentiable bt not for every R so U should say if it is differentiable in R
\(\mathbb{R}\) is always the universe of discourse... unless otherwise specified...
sol. is as follows-
to see this we use the following facts- \[\lim_{x \rightarrow o} \sin x=0\] we have not proved it,but is intuitively clear from the graph of sinx near zero.
now , observe that f(x) =sinx is defined for every real no.. Let 'c' be a real no..Put x=c+h. If x->c we know that h->0.thus,
\[\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)=\lim_{x \rightarrow c} \sin x\]
u can prove it if u want to sin x=x-x^3/fact3+x^5/fact5........ when u put x=0 u get sinx =0
\[\lim_{h \rightarrow 0} \sin (c+h).\]
\[\lim_{h \rightarrow 0} [\sin c \cos h+ \cos c \sin h]\]
yes this can be used to understand continuity if in neighbourhood of x=c sinx=sinc ie at x=0 and at x=0- and x=0+ where 0+ and 0- is the neighbourhood of c(here c=0)
previous one
\[\lim_{h \rightarrow 0} [\sin c \cos h]+\lim_{h \rightarrow 0} [\cos c \sin h].\]
=sin c+0=sin c=f(c)
ya.....
Thus, \[\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)=f(c)\] & hence f is a continuous function.
hmmm
did u understand the solution.
yeess I do
ok!
