Solution

The correct option is D g(x) has local maximum at x=3π4
g(x)=f(tanx)+f(cotx) x(π2,π)
g(x)=f(tanx)sec2xf(cotx)(cosec2x)
For increasing, g(x)>0
f′′(x)<0f(x) is decreasing
tanx<cotxx(π2,3π4)f(tanx)>f(cotx)
Also, sec2x>cosec2 x(π2,3π4)
g(x)>0g(x) is increasing in
(π2,3π4)

Similarly, g(x) is decreasing in (3π4,π)
Also, g(3π4)=0
At x=3π4, sign of g(x) changes from positive to negative
So, g(x) has local maximum at x=3π4
