Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Check differtiability at x = π\pi and x = 0

at x = 0 :

We have L. H. D = lim⁡h→0f(0−h)−f(0)−h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{f\left( {0 - h} \right) - f\left( 0 \right)} \over { - h}}

= lim⁡h→0∣−h−π∣(e∣−h∣−1)sin⁡∣h∣−0−h=0\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{\left| { - h - \pi } \right|\left( {{e^{\left| { - h} \right|}} - 1} \right)\sin \left| h \right| - 0} \over { - h}} = 0

R. H. D = lim⁡h→0f(0+h)−f(0)h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{f\left( {0 + h} \right) - f\left( 0 \right)} \over h}

=lim⁡h→0∣h−π∣(e∣h∣−1)sin⁡∣h∣−oh= \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{\left| {h - \pi } \right|\left( {{e^{\left| h \right|}} - 1} \right)\sin \left| h \right| - o} \over h}

= 0

∴,  \therefore,\,\, LHD = RHD

Therefore, function is differentiable at x = π\pi .

at x = π\pi :

L. H. D = lim⁡h→0f(π−h)−f(π)−h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{f\left( {\pi - h} \right) - f\left( \pi \right)} \over { - h}}

= lim⁡h→0∣π−h−π∣(e∣π−h∣−1)sin⁡∣π−h∣−0.−h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{\left| {\pi - h - \pi } \right|\left( {{e^{\left| {\pi - h} \right|}} - 1} \right)\sin \left| {\pi - h} \right| - 0.} \over { - h}}

= 0

RH. D = lim⁡h→0f(π+h)−f(π)h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{f\left( {\pi + h} \right) - f\left( \pi \right)} \over h}

= lim⁡h→0∣π+h−π∣(e∣π+h∣−1)sin⁡∣π+h∣−0h\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {{\left| {\pi + h - \pi } \right|\left( {{e^{\left| {\pi + h} \right|}} - 1} \right)\sin \left| {\pi + h} \right| - 0} \over h}

= 0

∴   \therefore\,\,\, L. H. D = R H D

Therefore, function is differentiable at x = π\pi ,

Since, the function f(x) is differentiable at all the points including 0 and π\pi .

So, f(x) is differentiable everywhere.

Therefore, set S is empty set.

S = ϕ\phi
