If f(x)=cos⁡−1(2x2−1),x∈[−1,1]f(x)=\cos ^{-1}\left(2 x^2-1\right), x \in[-1,1]. Then,
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
f(x)f(x) is differentiable on (−1,0)∪(0,1)(-1,0) \cup(0,1) such that f′(x)={−21−x2,0<x<121−x2,−1<x<0f'(x) = \left\{ {\begin{array}{llllllllllllllllllll} {\frac{{ - 2}}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} }},}&{0 < x < 1}\\ {\frac{2}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} }},}&{ - 1 < x < 0} \end{array}} \right.
Option C is correct because the derivative of arccos(2x2-1) is piecewise, being -2/sqrt(1-x2) for 0<x<1 and 2/sqrt(1-x2) for -1<x<0 due to the properties of arccos.
