Relations Question 13

Question: The range of following function is $ f(x)=\sqrt{(1-\cos x)\sqrt{(1-\cos x)\sqrt{(1-\cos x)\sqrt{…\infty }}}} $

Options:

A) $ [ 0,1 ] $

B) $ [ 0,1/2 ] $

C) $ [ 0,2 ] $

D) none of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Given $ f(x)=\sqrt{(1-\cos x)(1-\cos x)\sqrt{(1-\cos x)\sqrt{…\infty }}} $
$ ={{(1-\cos x)}^{\frac{1}{2}}}{{(1-\cos x)}^{\frac{1}{4}}}{{(1-\cos x)}^{\frac{1}{8}}}…\infty $
$ ={{(1-\cos x)}^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{8}+…\infty }} $
$ ={{(1-\cos x)}^{\frac{1/2}{1-(1/2)}}} $
$ =1-\cos x $
Thus, the range of f(x) is [0, 2).
