Answer:

Correct Answer: 2. (b)

Solution:

  1. Let $f(x)=\tan ^{-1} \frac{\sin x-\cos x}{\sin x+\cos x}=\tan ^{-1} \frac{\tan x-1}{\tan x+1}$

[dividing numerator and denominator by $\cos x>0, x \in 0, \frac{\pi}{2}$ ]

$$ \begin{aligned} & =\tan ^{-1} \frac{\tan x-\tan \frac{\pi}{4}}{1+\tan \frac{\pi}{4}(\tan x)} \\ & =\tan ^{-1} \tan x-\frac{\pi}{4} \\ & \because \frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B}=\tan (A-B) \end{aligned} $$

Since, it is given that $x \in 0, \frac{\pi}{2}$, so

$$ x-\frac{\pi}{4} \in-\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{4} $$

Also, for $x-\frac{\pi}{4} \in-\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{4}$,

Then,

$$ \begin{aligned} f(x)=\tan ^{-1} \tan x & -\frac{\pi}{4} \quad=x-\frac{\pi}{4} \\ & \because \tan ^{-1} \tan \theta=\theta, \text { for } \theta \in-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \end{aligned} $$

Now, derivative of $f(x)$ w.r.t. $\frac{x}{2}$ is

$$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{d(f(x))}{d(x / 2)}=2 \frac{d f(x)}{d(x)} \\ & \quad=2 \times \frac{d}{d x} \quad x-\frac{\pi}{4}=2 \end{aligned} $$
