NCERT Solutions class 12 Continuity & Differentiability

1. Prove that the function  is continuous at  at  and at  

Ans. Given:

Continuity at    = 5 (0) – 3 = 0 – 3 = – 3

And  5 (0) – 3 = 0 – 3 = – 3

Since , therefore,  is continuous at .

Continuity at    = 5 (– 3) – 3 = – 15 – 3 = – 18

And  5 (– 3) – 3 = – 15 – 3 = – 18

Since , therefore,  is continuous at

Continuity at    = 5 (5) – 3 = 25 – 3 = 2

And  5 (5) – 3 = 25 – 3 = 22

Since , therefore,  is continuous at .

2. Examine the continuity of the function  at

Ans. Given:

Continuity at ,    =

And  

Since , therefore,  is continuous at .


NCERT Solutions class 12 Maths Exercise 5.1 Part-1

3. Examine the following functions for continuity:

(a)

(b)  

(c)

(d)  

Ans. (a) Given:

It is evident that  is defined at every real number  and its value at  is

It is also observed that

Since , therefore,  is continuous at every real number and it is a continuous function.

(b) Given:

For any real number , we get 

And

Since , therefore,  is continuous at every point of domain of  and it is a continuous function.

(c) Given:

For any real number , we get

And

Since , therefore,  is continuous at every point of domain of  and it is a continuous function.

(d) Given:

Domain of  is real and infinite for all real

Here  is a modulus function.

Since, every modulus function is continuous, therefore,  is continuous in its domain R.

4.  Prove that the function  is continuous at  where  is a positive integer.

Ans. Given:  where  is a positive integer.

Continuity at ,  

And

Since , therefore,  is continuous at .


5. Is the function  defined by  continuous at  at  at  

Ans. Given:

At , It is evident that  is defined at 0 and its value at 0 is 0.

Then  and 

Therefore,  is continuous at .

At , Left Hand limit of

Right Hand limit of

Here

Therefore,  is not continuous at .

At ,  is defined at 2 and its value at 2 is 5.

, therefore,

Therefore,  is not continuous at .


NCERT Solutions class 12 Maths Exercise 5.1 Part-1

Find all points of discontinuity of  where  is defined by: (Exercise 6 to 12)

6.  

Ans. Given:

Here  is defined for  i.e., on  and also for  i.e., on

 Domain of  is  = R

 For all  is a polynomial and hence continuous and for all is a continuous and hence it is also continuous on R – {2}.

Now Left Hand limit =  = 2 x 2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7

Right Hand limit =  = 2 x 2 – 3 = 4 – 3 = 1

Since  

Therefore,  does not exist and hence  is discontinuous at  (only)


7.

Ans. Given:

Here  is defined for  i.e., on  and for  and also for  i.e., on

 Domain of  is  = R

 For all  is a polynomial and hence continuous and for all  is a continuous and hence it is also continuous and also for all . Therefore,  is continuous on R –

It is observed that  and  are partitioning points of domain R.

Now Left Hand limit =

Right Hand limit =

And

Therefore,  is continuous at .

Again  Left Hand limit =

Right Hand limit =

Since

Therefore,  does not exist and hence  is discontinuous at  (only).


8.

Ans. Given:  i.e.,  if  and  if

   if ,  if  and  if

It is clear that domain of  is R as  is defined for ,  and .

For all ,  is a constant function and hence continuous.

For all ,  is a constant function and hence continuous.

Therefore  is continuous on R – {0}.

Now Left Hand limit =

Right Hand limit =

Since

Therefore,  does not exist and hence  is discontinuous at  (only).


9.

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. = And 

R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L. =

Therefore,  is a continuous function.

Now, for  

 

Therefore,  is a continuous at

Now, for  

Therefore,  is a continuous at

Hence, the function is continuous at all points of its domain.


10.

Ans. Given:

It is observed that  being polynomial is continuous for  and  for all  R.

Continuity at  R.H.L. =

L.H.L. =

And

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L. =

Therefore,  is a continuous at  for all  R.

Hence,  has no point of discontinuity.


11.

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. =

R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L. =

Therefore,  is a continuous at

 Now, for   and

 

Therefore,  is a continuous for all  R.

Hence the function has no point of discontinuity.


12.

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. =

R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L.  R.H.L.

Therefore,  is discontinuous at

 Now,   for   and for  

Therefore,  is a continuous for all  R – {1}

Hence for all given function  is a point of discontinuity.


NCERT Solutions class 12 Maths Exercise 5.1 Part-1

13. Is the function defined by  a continuous function?

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. =

R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L.  R.H.L.

Therefore,  is discontinuous at

 Now,   for   and for  

Therefore,  is a continuous for all  R – {1}

Hence  is not a continuous function.


Discuss the continuity of the function  where  is defined by:

14.

Ans. Given:

In the interval  

  is continuous in this interval.

At  L.H.L. =  and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L.  R.H.L.

Therefore,  is discontinuous at

At  L.H.L. =  and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L.  R.H.L.

Therefore,  is discontinuous at

Hence,  is discontinuous at  and


15.

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. =  and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L.

Therefore,  is continuous at

At  L.H.L. =   and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L.  R.H.L.

Therefore,  is discontinuous at

When  being a polynomial function is continuous for all

When . It is being a polynomial function is continuous for all

Hence  is a point of discontinuity.


16.

Ans. Given:

At  L.H.L. =  and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L.

Therefore,  is continuous at

At  L.H.L. =  and R.H.L. =

Since   L.H.L. = R.H.L.

Therefore,  is continuous at
