    The function \[f(x)=log\,(x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1})\], is

    A) neither an even nor an odd function

    B) an even function

    C) an odd function

    D) a periodic function

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[f(x)=log\,(x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1})\] \[f(-x)=log\,\left\{ (-x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1}) \right\}=log\,\left\{ \frac{-{{x}^{2}}+{{x}^{2}}+1}{x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1}} \right\}\] \[=\,\,-log\,(x+\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1}\,\,\,=-\,f(x)\] \[\Rightarrow \]f(x) is an odd function.
