Question
Number of possible tangents to the curve y=cos(x+y),−3π≤x≤3π that are parallel to the line x+2y = 0, is
Answer: Option C
:
C
We have, y = cos (x + y)
dydx=sin(x+y)(1+dydx)
Since, the tangents are parallel to the line x + 2y = 0
−12=−sin(x+y)(1−12)⇒sin(x+y)=1⇒x+y=π2,5π2,3π2−1≤y≤1.
Hence (c) is the correct answer.
