    The point in the interval \[(0,2\pi )\] where \[f(x)={{e}^{x}}\sin x\] has maximum slope is

    A) \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    B) \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]

    C) \[\pi \]

    D) \[\frac{3\pi }{2}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Given \[f(x)={{e}^{x}}\sin x\] \[\Rightarrow f'(x)={{e}^{x}}\cos x+{{e}^{x}}\sin x\] \[\Rightarrow slope={{e}^{x}}(\cos x+\sin x)\] Now, \[\frac{d}{dx}(\cos x+\sin x)=0\] \[\Rightarrow -\sin x+\cos x=0\] \[\Rightarrow \sin x=\cos x\Rightarrow \tan x=1\] \[\Rightarrow x=\frac{\pi }{4}\]
