Let

f(x)=\sin x-\tan x, x \in(0, \pi / 2)

then tangent drawn to the curve

y=f(x)

at any point will

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Lie above the curve

Option A (Lie above the curve) is correct because the second derivative is negative, indicating the curve is concave down, so the tangent lies above.
