QJEEM19Maefe3: JEE Main 2019 Mathematics - Class 12 JEEM19Maefe3 Solution: Let f(x) = log e (sin x), (0 < x < π ) and g(x) = sin –1 (e –x…

Let f(x) = loge(sin x), (0 < x < π) and g(x) = sin–1 (e–x ), (x ≥ 0). If α is a positive real number such that a = (fog)'(α) and b = (fog)(α), then :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A aα2 + bα - a = -2α2
  • B aα2 + bα + a = 0
  • C aα2 - bα - a = 0
  • D aα2 - bα - a = 1

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

f(x) = ln(sin x), g(x) = sin–1 (e–x)

f(g(x)) = ln(sin(sin–1 e–x)) = -x

f(g(α)) = – α = b

As f(g(x)) = – x

∴ (f(g(x)))' = – 1

⇒ (f(g(α)))' = – 1 = a

∴ b = – α, a = – 1

∴ aα2 - bα - a = - α2 + α2 + 1 = 1
