Let [x] denote the greatest integer less than or equal to x. Then the domain of is:
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
- Condition for the inverse secant to exist
For real values, is defined when So for we need
- Let
Since is the greatest integer function, is always an integer. Thus the argument of becomes which is always an odd integer.
So possible values are
- Check whether these values satisfy the domain condition
For every odd integer , we have Indeed, can never be .
Hence is defined for every real .
- Therefore the domain
Since no real is excluded,
- Option check
- A: ✅
- B: excludes , unnecessary ❌
- C: excludes , unnecessary ❌
- D: excludes , unnecessary ❌
Therefore, the correct option is
