Question 19 Assertion (A): The domain of the function 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) 2𝑥 𝑖𝑠 (−∞,1/2]∪[1/2,∞ ) Reason (R): 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) (−2)=−𝜋/4 In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Choose the correct answer out of the following choices. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. (c) A is true but R is false. (d) A is false but R is true.
Checking Assertion
Assertion (A): The domain of function 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) 2𝑥 𝑖𝑠 (−∞,1/2]∪[1/2,∞ )
We know that
Domain of 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) θ 𝑖𝑠 (−∞,1]∪[1,∞ )
Thus,
−∞<θ≤1 and 1≤ θ<∞
Putting θ = 2x
−∞<2𝑥≤1 and 1≤2𝑥<∞
Dividing both sides by 2
−∞/2<2𝑥/2≤1/2 and 1/2≤2𝑥/2<∞/2
−∞<𝒙≤𝟏/𝟐 and 𝟏/𝟐≤𝒙<∞
Thus,
Domain of 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) 2𝑥 𝑖𝑠 (−∞,𝟏/𝟐]∪[𝟏/𝟐,∞ )
Thus, Assertion is true
Checking Reason
Reason (R): 〖𝑠𝑒𝑐〗^(−1) (−2)=−𝜋/4
Let y = sec−1 (−2)
y = 𝜋− sec−1 (2)
y = 𝜋 − 𝜋/3
y = 𝟐𝝅/𝟑
Since Range of sec−1 is [0, π] – {𝜋/2}
Hence, Principal Value is 𝟐𝝅/𝟑
Thus, Reasoning is false
So,
Assertion is true
Reasoning is false
So, the correct answer is (c)
