Solution

The correct option is A f(x) is continuous and differentiable at all xR
f(x)=tan(π[xπ])1+[x]2
By definition, [xπ] is an integer, and so (π[xπ]) is an integral multiple of π.
tan(π[xπ])=0 xR
Also, 1+[x]20
f(x)=0

Thus, f(x) is constant function and so, it is continuous and differentiable at all xR
