- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
- Given function
We need the range of
We must choose the interval such that is both one-one and onto.
- Use the tangent double-angle identity
Recall:
Let
Since , we have
Then
So,
Now since
and for , we get
- Determine the range
Since and is strictly increasing,
Therefore,
Also, the endpoints are not attained because and are not in the domain.
Hence the range is
- Check one-one
The function
is strictly increasing on because is strictly increasing. Hence is one-one.
- Check onto for the options
For to be onto, must equal the range of , i.e.
Now evaluate options:
- A: — not correct, misses negative values.
- B: — not correct, misses negative values and includes as left endpoint formatting issue only, but still not full range.
- C: — not correct, includes endpoints not attained.
- D: — correct.
- Final answer
Therefore, the interval for which is both one-one and onto is
So the correct option is D.
