Find the domain of function f(x) = sqrt(sin(sqrt(x)))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x) = \[\sqrt{\sin{\sqrt{x}}}\]

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Huh... interesting... for one thing, x cannot be negative...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x >= 0

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Also, \(\sin\sqrt{x}\ge 0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok yeah

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

So, for instance, we have \(\Large \sin(\theta) \ge 0\) At which intervals does \(\theta\) fall so that \(\large \sin(\theta) \) is not negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0 to pi

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

True... the interval \[\Large\left[0, \pi\right]\]Anything else? Remember, we are dealing with the entirety of the real numbers here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aah, \[[2n \pi , (2n+1) \pi]\]

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yes, where n ranges from...?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

n is an integer.... good enough...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah -infinity < n < infinity... n belongs to Z

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

So that means \[\huge \sqrt x \in [2n\pi \quad , \quad (2n+1)\pi]\quad\quad n\in\mathbb{Z}?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think we are close..

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Are you sure it's not... \[\huge n \in [0,\infty)\cap\mathbb{Z}\]? After all, x can only be positive, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow.. \[x \in [(2n \pi)^2,{(2n+1) \pi}^2]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Am I right ?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yup :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yay Love u bro :D

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

But you forgot to square this part... close enough... \[x \in [(2n \pi)^2,{\color{green}{(2n+1)} \pi}^2]\] And I think the proper notation is this \[\huge \bigcup_{n=0}^{\infty}[(2n\pi)^2\quad , \quad (2n+1)^2\pi^2]\]
