Correct answer: B, C, D

Step 1: Evaluate the limit to find a differential equation.

The given limit is: L=lim⁡t→xf(x)sin⁡t−f(t)sin⁡xt−xL = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to x} {{f(x)\sin t - f(t)\sin x} \over {t - x}}L=t→xlim​t−xf(x)sint−f(t)sinx​ As t→xt \to xt→x, the numerator becomes f(x)sin⁡x−f(x)sin⁡x=0f(x)\sin x - f(x)\sin x = 0f(x)sinx−f(x)sinx=0 and the denominator becomes x−x=0x-x=0x−x=0. This is a 00\frac{0}{0}00​ indeterminate form, so we can apply L'Hôpital's rule by differentiating the numerator and denominator with respect to ttt.

L=lim⁡t→xddt(f(x)sin⁡t−f(t)sin⁡x)ddt(t−x)=lim⁡t→xf(x)cos⁡t−f′(t)sin⁡x1L = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to x} {{\frac{d}{{dt}}(f(x)\sin t - f(t)\sin x)} \over {\frac{d}{{dt}}(t - x)}} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to x} {{f(x)\cos t - f'(t)\sin x} \over 1}L=t→xlim​dtd​(t−x)dtd​(f(x)sint−f(t)sinx)​=t→xlim​1f(x)cost−f′(t)sinx​ Substituting t=xt=xt=x, we get: L=f(x)cos⁡x−f′(x)sin⁡xL = f(x)\cos x - f'(x)\sin xL=f(x)cosx−f′(x)sinx We are given that L=sin⁡2xL = \sin^2xL=sin2x. Therefore, we have the differential equation: f(x)cos⁡x−f′(x)sin⁡x=sin⁡2xf(x)\cos x - f'(x)\sin x = \sin^2xf(x)cosx−f′(x)sinx=sin2x Rearranging the terms, we get: f′(x)sin⁡x−f(x)cos⁡x=−sin⁡2xf'(x)\sin x - f(x)\cos x = -\sin^2xf′(x)sinx−f(x)cosx=−sin2x

Step 2: Solve the differential equation.

For x∈(0,π)x \in (0, \pi)x∈(0,π), sin⁡x≠0\sin x \neq 0sinx=0. We can divide the equation by sin⁡2x\sin^2xsin2x: f′(x)sin⁡x−f(x)cos⁡xsin⁡2x=−1{{f'(x)\sin x - f(x)\cos x} \over {\sin^2x}} = -1sin2xf′(x)sinx−f(x)cosx​=−1 The left-hand side is the derivative of a quotient, specifically ddx(f(x)sin⁡x)\frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{f(x)}{\sin x}\right)dxd​(sinxf(x)​). So, the equation becomes: ddx(f(x)sin⁡x)=−1{d \over {dx}}\left( {{{f(x)} \over {\sin x}}} \right) = -1dxd​(sinxf(x)​)=−1 Integrating both sides with respect to xxx: ∫ddx(f(x)sin⁡x)dx=∫−1dx\int {{d \over {dx}}\left( {{{f(x)} \over {\sin x}}} \right)dx} = \int { - 1} dx∫dxd​(sinxf(x)​)dx=∫−1dx f(x)sin⁡x=−x+C{{f(x)} \over {\sin x}} = -x + Csinxf(x)​=−x+C where C is the constant of integration. Thus, the general solution is: f(x)=(C−x)sin⁡xf(x) = (C-x)\sin xf(x)=(C−x)sinx We use the given condition f(π/6)=−π/12f(\pi/6) = -\pi/12f(π/6)=−π/12 to find C. f(π6)=(C−π6)sin⁡(π6)=(C−π6)12f\left( {{\pi \over 6}} \right) = \left( {C - {\pi \over 6}} \right)\sin \left( {{\pi \over 6}} \right) = \left( {C - {\pi \over 6}} \right){1 \over 2}f(6π​)=(C−6π​)sin(6π​)=(C−6π​)21​ −π12=12(C−π6)-{\pi \over {12}} = {1 \over 2}\left( {C - {\pi \over 6}} \right)−12π​=21​(C−6π​) −π6=C−π6-{\pi \over 6} = C - {\pi \over 6}−6π​=C−6π​ This gives C=0C=0C=0. Therefore, the function is: f(x)=−xsin⁡xf(x) = -x\sin xf(x)=−xsinx

Step 3: Evaluate each option.

Option A: f(π4)=π42f\left( {{\pi \over 4}} \right) = {\pi \over {4\sqrt 2 }}f(4π​)=42​π​ Let's calculate f(π/4)f(\pi/4)f(π/4) using our function: f(π4)=−π4sin⁡(π4)=−π4⋅12=−π42f\left( {{\pi \over 4}} \right) = -\frac{\pi}{4}\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\pi}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = -\frac{\pi}{4\sqrt{2}}f(4π​)=−4π​sin(4π​)=−4π​⋅2​1​=−42​π​ The calculated value does not match the value given in the option. So, option A is FALSE.

Option B: f(x)<x46−x2f(x) \lt {{{x^4}} \over 6} - {x^2}f(x)<6x4​−x2 for all x ∈\in∈(0, π\piπ) Substituting f(x)=−xsin⁡xf(x) = -x\sin xf(x)=−xsinx, the inequality becomes: −xsin⁡x<x46−x2-x\sin x < \frac{x^4}{6} - x^2−xsinx<6x4​−x2 x2−xsin⁡x<x46x^2 - x\sin x < \frac{x^4}{6}x2−xsinx<6x4​ Since x∈(0,π)x \in (0, \pi)x∈(0,π), x>0x>0x>0, so we can divide by xxx: x−sin⁡x<x36x - \sin x < \frac{x^3}{6}x−sinx<6x3​ Let's define a function g(x)=x36−(x−sin⁡x)g(x) = \frac{x^3}{6} - (x - \sin x)g(x)=6x3​−(x−sinx). We want to show g(x)>0g(x) > 0g(x)>0 for x∈(0,π)x \in (0, \pi)x∈(0,π). Let's analyze its derivatives: g(0)=0−(0−0)=0g(0) = 0 - (0-0) = 0g(0)=0−(0−0)=0. g′(x)=3x26−(1−cos⁡x)=x22−1+cos⁡xg'(x) = \frac{3x^2}{6} - (1 - \cos x) = \frac{x^2}{2} - 1 + \cos xg′(x)=63x2​−(1−cosx)=2x2​−1+cosx. So, g′(0)=0−1+1=0g'(0) = 0 - 1 + 1 = 0g′(0)=0−1+1=0. g′′(x)=x−sin⁡xg''(x) = x - \sin xg′′(x)=x−sinx. For x>0x > 0x>0, it is a known result that x>sin⁡xx > \sin xx>sinx. Thus, g′′(x)>0g''(x) > 0g′′(x)>0 for x∈(0,π)x \in (0, \pi)x∈(0,π). Since g′′(x)>0g''(x) > 0g′′(x)>0, g′(x)g'(x)g′(x) is a strictly increasing function. For x>0x > 0x>0, g′(x)>g′(0)=0g'(x) > g'(0) = 0g′(x)>g′(0)=0. Since g′(x)>0g'(x) > 0g′(x)>0, g(x)g(x)g(x) is also a strictly increasing function. For x>0x > 0x>0, g(x)>g(0)=0g(x) > g(0) = 0g(x)>g(0)=0. Therefore, the inequality x−sin⁡x<x36x - \sin x < \frac{x^3}{6}x−sinx<6x3​ holds for x∈(0,π)x \in (0, \pi)x∈(0,π). So, option B is TRUE.

Option C: There exists α∈\alpha \inα∈(0, π\piπ) such that f'(α\alphaα) = 0 We have the function f(x)=−xsin⁡xf(x) = -x\sin xf(x)=−xsinx. This function is continuous on [0,π][0, \pi][0,π] and differentiable on (0,π)(0, \pi)(0,π). Let's evaluate the function at the endpoints of the interval [0,π][0, \pi][0,π]: f(0)=−0⋅sin⁡(0)=0f(0) = -0 \cdot \sin(0) = 0f(0)=−0⋅sin(0)=0. f(π)=−π⋅sin⁡(π)=0f(\pi) = -\pi \cdot \sin(\pi) = 0f(π)=−π⋅sin(π)=0. Since f(0)=f(π)f(0) = f(\pi)f(0)=f(π), by Rolle's Theorem, there must exist at least one point α∈(0,π)\alpha \in (0, \pi)α∈(0,π) such that f′(α)=0f'(\alpha)=0f′(α)=0. So, option C is TRUE.

Option D: f′′(π2)+f(π2)=0f''\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) + f\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) = 0f′′(2π​)+f(2π​)=0 First, find the first and second derivatives of f(x)=−xsin⁡xf(x) = -x\sin xf(x)=−xsinx. f′(x)=−(1⋅sin⁡x+x⋅cos⁡x)=−sin⁡x−xcos⁡xf'(x) = -(1 \cdot \sin x + x \cdot \cos x) = -\sin x - x\cos xf′(x)=−(1⋅sinx+x⋅cosx)=−sinx−xcosx. f′′(x)=−cos⁡x−(1⋅cos⁡x+x(−sin⁡x))=−cos⁡x−cos⁡x+xsin⁡x=xsin⁡x−2cos⁡xf''(x) = -\cos x - (1 \cdot \cos x + x(-\sin x)) = -\cos x - \cos x + x\sin x = x\sin x - 2\cos xf′′(x)=−cosx−(1⋅cosx+x(−sinx))=−cosx−cosx+xsinx=xsinx−2cosx. Now, evaluate f(π/2)f(\pi/2)f(π/2) and f′′(π/2)f''(\pi/2)f′′(π/2): f(π2)=−π2sin⁡(π2)=−π2(1)=−π2f\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) = -{{\pi \over 2}}\sin\left({{\pi \over 2}}\right) = -{{\pi \over 2}}(1) = -{{\pi \over 2}}f(2π​)=−2π​sin(2π​)=−2π​(1)=−2π​ f′′(π2)=π2sin⁡(π2)−2cos⁡(π2)=π2(1)−2(0)=π2f''\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) = {{\pi \over 2}}\sin\left({{\pi \over 2}}\right) - 2\cos\left({{\pi \over 2}}\right) = {{\pi \over 2}}(1) - 2(0) = {{\pi \over 2}}f′′(2π​)=2π​sin(2π​)−2cos(2π​)=2π​(1)−2(0)=2π​ Now, check the condition: f′′(π2)+f(π2)=π2+(−π2)=0f''\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) + f\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) = {{\pi \over 2}} + \left(-{{\pi \over 2}}\right) = 0f′′(2π​)+f(2π​)=2π​+(−2π​)=0 The condition is satisfied. So, option D is TRUE.

Final conclusion: Options B, C, and D are true.
