Question

The equation sin x + x cos x = 0 has at least one root in the interval

Solution

Correct option is

(0, π)

Consider the function given by,   

                 

We observe that                              f (0) = f (π) = 0    

∴ 0 and π are two roots of f (x) = 0.  

Consequently, f’(x) = 0 i.e., sin x + x cos x = 0   

has at least one root in (0, π).
