Question 10

Mathematics Function and Relation Easy

The range of the function \( f(x)=\log _{[x-1]} \sin x \) is

(A) \( (-\infty, 0] \)
(B) \( (-\infty, \infty) \)
(C) \( (0,1] \)
(D) \( (1,-\infty] \)
✓ Correct Answer: Option A Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

For \(\log_{[x-1]}\sin x\) to be defined:

  • The base \([x-1]\) is an integer and must be positive and not 1, so \([x-1] \ge 2\).
  • The argument must be positive: \(\sin x > 0\), so \(0 < \sin x \le 1\).

With base \(> 1\) and argument in \((0, 1]\), the log is \(\le 0\). It equals 0 when \(\sin x = 1\) and goes to \(-\infty\) as \(\sin x \to 0^+\).

Range = \((-\infty, 0]\)

Answer: (A)
