Solution

The correct option is D f is differentiable everywhere except at x=0
f(x)=|x|+|sinx|, x(π2,π2)
f(x)=xsinx ,π2<x<0x+sinx ,0x<π2

For continuity at x=0:
L.H.L.=limx0(x+sinx)
=limh0(hsinh)
=0
R.H.L.=limx0+(x+sinx)
=limh0(h+sinh)
=0
L.H.L=R.H.L.=f(0)=0
f is continuous at x=0

Now, L.H.D.=f(0)
=limh0f(0h)f(0)h
=limh0h+sinhh
=limh0(1+sinhh)=2

R.H.D.=f(0+)
=limh0f(0+h)f(0)h
=limh0(1+sinhh)=2

L.H.D.R.H.D.
So, f is not differentiable at x=0.
