If \(2 f(\sin x)+f(\cos x)=x\), then \(f^{\prime}(x)=\)

If \(2 f(\sin x)+f(\cos x)=x\), then \(f^{\prime}(x)=\)
  1. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\)
  2. \(\frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\)
  3. \(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\)
  4. \(\frac{-x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\)

Solution

It is given that, \(2 f(\sin x)+f(\cos x)=x\) ...(i) by replacing \(x\) by \(\frac{\pi}{2}-x\), we get \(2 f(\cos x)+f(\sin x)=\frac{\pi}{2}-x\) ...(ii) from Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \(3 f(\sin x)=3 x-\frac{\pi}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow 3 f(x)=3 \sin ^{-1} x-\frac{\pi}{2}\left(\right.\) on replacing \(x\) by \(\left.\sin ^{-1} x\right)\) Now, on differentiating both sides w.r.t. ' \(x\) ', we get \(3 f^{\prime}(x)=3 \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\) Hence, option (a) is correct.
