    Let \[\left( x+y \right)=f\left( x \right)+f\left( y \right)+2xy-1,y\in R\] if \[f\left( x \right)\] is differentiable and \[f'\left( 0 \right)=\sin \phi \], then

    A) \[f\left( x \right)>0\forall x\in R\]

    B) \[f\left( x \right)<0\forall x\in R\]

    C) \[f\left( x \right)=\sin \phi \forall x\in R\]

    D) none of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    (a)
    \[f\left( x+y \right)=f\left( x \right)+f\left( y \right)+2xy-1\]
    Put \[x=y=0\Rightarrow f\left( 0 \right)=2f\left( 0 \right)-1\Rightarrow f\left( 0 \right)=1\]
    Also,\[f'\left( x \right)=\underset{h\,\to \,0}{\mathop{\operatorname{Lim}}}\,\frac{f\left( x+h \right)-f\left( x \right)}{h}\]\[=\underset{h\,\to \,0}{\mathop{Lim}}\,\frac{f\left( x \right)+f\left( h \right)+2xh-1-f\left( x \right)}{h}\]
    \[=2x+\underset{h\,\to \,0}{\mathop{Lim}}\,\frac{f\left( h \right)-1}{h}\]\[=2x+f'\left( 0 \right)=2x+\sin \phi \]
    Integrating, we get \[f\left( x \right)={{x}^{2}}+x\sin \phi +C\]\[f\left( 0 \right)=1\Rightarrow 1=C\]
    \[\therefore f\left( x \right)={{x}^{2}}+x\sin \phi +1>0\forall x\in R\]                    \[\left[ \because \Delta <0 \right]\].
