Prove that y=( 4 sin theta/ 2+cos theta )- theta is an increasing function of theta in[0, pie/2]. NCERT Q 9,6.2, in this ques dy/dx is calculated 2 times .explain how it was calculated second time and why?

y=4sinθ2+cosθ-θHence for the function to be increasing, y'>0Hence on differentiation we gety' =4cosθ(2+cosθ)-4sinθ(-sinθ)(2+cosθ)2-1y' =8cosθ+ 4cos2θ+4sin2θ(2+cosθ)2-1Or y' =8cosθ+ 4(2+cosθ)2-1Or y' = 8cosθ+ 4-(4 +cos2θ+4cosθ)(2+cosθ)2 y' =4cosθ-cos2θ(2+cosθ)2So y' =cosθ(4-cosθ)(2+cosθ)2So cosθ is positive in (0,π/2), (4-cosθ) >0, as cosθ max value can be 1 only, and the denominator is always positive. Hence y' is always positive in (0,π/2) So y=4sinθ2+cosθ-θ is increasing in (0,π/2)
