Question -

What is the maximum value of the functionsin x + cos x?



Answer -

Let f(x) = sin x +cos x.

Now, will be negative when(sin x + cos x) is positive i.e., when sin x andcos are both positive. Also, we know that sin x andcos x both are positive in the first quadrant. Then, will be negative when.

Thus, we consider.
By second derivative test, f will bethe maximum atand the maximum valueof f is.
