  • question_answer
    Consider the following statements:
    1. The function f (x) = greatest integer \[\le x,\text{ }x\in R\]is a continuous function.
    2. All trigonometric functions are continuous on R.
    Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

    A) 1 only

    B) 2 only

    C) Both 1 and 2

    D) Neither 1 nor 2

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Here, greatest integer function [x] is discontinuous at its integral value of x, cot x and cosec x are discontinuous at \[0,\pi ,2\pi \] etc. and tan x and sec x are discontinuous at \[x=\frac{\pi }{2},\frac{3\pi }{2},\frac{5\pi }{2}\] etc. therefore the greatest integer function and all trigonometric functions are not continuous for \[x\in R\] Therefore, neither (1) nor (2) are true.
