Q163
Iflimx0cos(2x)+acos(4x)bx4isfinite,then(a+b)isequalto:If\,\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} {{\cos (2x) + a\cos (4x) - b} \over {{x^4}}}is\,finite,\,then\,(a + b)\,is\,equal\,to:
A 0
B 34\dfrac{3}{4}
C -1
D 12\dfrac{1}{2}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

To find the value of a+ba + b for which the following limit is finite: limx0cos(2x)+acos(4x)bx4 \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\cos(2x) + a \cos(4x) - b}{x^4} we start by expanding the cosine functions using their Taylor series: cos(2x)=1(2x)22!+(2x)44! \cos(2x) = 1 - \dfrac{(2x)^2}{2!} + \dfrac{(2x)^4}{4!} - \ldots cos(4x)=1(4x)22!+(4x)44! \cos(4x) = 1 - \dfrac{(4x)^2}{2!} + \dfrac{(4x)^4}{4!} - \ldots Substitute these expansions into the limit expression: limx0(14x22!+(2x)44!)+a(1(4x)22!+(4x)44!)bx4 \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\left(1 - \dfrac{4x^2}{2!} + \dfrac{(2x)^4}{4!} - \ldots \right) + a\left(1 - \dfrac{(4x)^2}{2!} + \dfrac{(4x)^4}{4!} - \ldots\right) - b}{x^4} To ensure that the limit is finite, the linear and quadratic terms must sum to zero.

Let's equate the constant terms first: For the limit to be finite: 1+ab=0 1 + a - b = 0 Equating the coefficients of x2x^2: 28a=0 -2 - 8a = 0 Solving the second equation, we have: 8a=2a=14 8a = -2 \\ a = \dfrac{-1}{4} Substitute aa back into the first equation to find bb: 1+14b=0b=114b=34 1 + \dfrac{-1}{4} - b = 0 \\ b = 1 - \dfrac{1}{4} \\ b = \dfrac{3}{4} Thus, the sum of aa and bb is: a+b=14+34=12 a + b = \dfrac{-1}{4} + \dfrac{3}{4} = \dfrac{1}{2} Therefore, the correct value of a+ba + b is 12\dfrac{1}{2}.

Solution

As f(x) is differentiable at x = 1 \therefore

limx1(x)=limx1+(a+cos1(x+b))=f(1)\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {1^ - }} \left( { - x} \right) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {1^ + }} \left( {a + {{\cos }^{ - 1}}\left( {x + b} \right)} \right) = f(1)

\Rightarrow -1 == a + cos-1(1 + b) \Rightarrow cos-1 (1 + b) == -1 - a . . . . . .(

[ Using L' Hospital Rule]

=11(1+b)2= {{ - 1} \over {\sqrt {1 - {{\left( {1 + b} \right)}^2}} }}

\therefore

1=11(1+b)2- 1 = {{ - 1} \over {\sqrt {1 - {{\left( {1 + b} \right)}^2}} }}
1(1+b)2=1\Rightarrow 1 - {\left( {1 + b} \right)^2} = 1

\Rightarrow

(1+b)2=0{\left( {1 + b} \right)^2} = 0

\Rightarrow

b=1b = - 1

putting value of b in equation (1), we get,

cos1(11)=1a{\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {1 - 1} \right) = - 1 - a

\Rightarrow

π2=1a{\pi \over 2} = - 1 - a

\Rightarrow

a=1π2a = - 1 - {\pi \over 2}

\therefore

ab=1π21=1+π2=π+22{a \over b} = {{ - 1 - {\pi \over 2}} \over { - 1}} = 1 + {\pi \over 2} = {{\pi + 2} \over 2}
