Functions Ques 53
If $g{f(x)}=|\sin x|$ and $f{g(x)}=(\sin \sqrt{x})^{2}$, then
(a) $f(x)=\sin ^{2} x, g(x)=\sqrt{x}$
(b) $f(x)=\sin x, g(x)=|x|$
(c) $f(x)=x^{2}, g(x)=\sin \sqrt{x}$
(d) $f$ and $g$ cannot be determined

Answer:
Correct Answer: 53.(a)
Solution:
Formula:
- Let
$ f(x)=\sin ^{2} x \text { and } g(x)=\sqrt{x} $
Now, $\quad f o g(x)=f[g(x)]=f(\sqrt{x})=\sin ^{2} \sqrt{x}$
and $\quad g o f(x)=g[f(x)]=g\left(\sin ^{2} x\right)=\sqrt{\sin ^{2} x}=|\sin x|$
Again, let $f(x)=\sin x, g(x)=|x|$
$ \begin{aligned} f o g(x) & =f[g(x)]=f(|x|) \\ & =\sin |x| \neq(\sin \sqrt{x})^{2} \end{aligned} $
When
$ f(x)=x^{2}, g(x)=\sin \sqrt{x} $
$ f o g(x)=f[g(x)]=f(\sin \sqrt{x})=(\sin \sqrt{x})^{2} $
and
$ (g o f)(x)=g[f(x)]=g\left(x^{2}\right)=\sin \sqrt{x^{2}} $
$ =\sin |x| \neq|\sin x| $
