Question 32

Mathematics Trigonometric Equations Medium

If \(f(x) = \cos[\pi^2]x + \cos[-\pi^2]x\), where \([.]\) stands for the greatest integer function, then \(f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\) is:

(A) \(-1\)
(B) 0
(C) 1
(D) 2
✓ Correct Answer: Option A Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

\[ f(x) = \cos\left[\pi^2\right]x + \cos\left[-\pi^2\right]x \] \[ f(x) = \cos\left[9.85\right]x + \cos\left[-9.85\right]x \] \[ f(x) = \cos9x + \cos10x \] Thus: \[ f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) = 0 - 1 = -1 \]
