In the solution of the following question , I want to know how the marked (in blue bracket) step came ?

Q. Find the intervals in which  f x   =   sin 3 x   -   cos 3 x   ,   0 <   x   <   π  is strictly increasing or strictly decreasing?

 

Dear student
We have :sin3x+π4>02π<3x+π4<3πThis is so because graph of sine function is positive  between intervals 0,π ,2π,3π,... and  sine function is negative  between intervalsπ,2π,3π,4π,...So for sin3x+π4>0you can also consider0<3x+π4<π
Regards
