Question

Find the maximum value of cos (cos(cos x))

Open in App
Solution

The given function iscos coscos xWe know that for all real vlues of θ, -1cosθ1.Thus, the maximum possible value of cos θ is 1.The function cos θ decreases from 1 to -1 as the value of θ increases from 2 to 2n+1π. Now, the function cos(cos(cos x)) wiil be maximum, when coscos x will be minimum.The function coscos x will be minimum when cos x has maximum value.The maximum value of cos x occurs at x=2, i.e. the maximum possible valueof cos x is 1.Hence, the maximum value of coscoscosx occurs at x=2 and the maximum value is coscos1.
