Consider the functions f(x) = a sin 2x and g(x) = (sin x)/a, where a > 0
Question:
Consider the functions f(x) = a sin 2x and g(x) = (sin x)/a, where a > 0 is a real number.
a. Graph the two functions on the interval [0, π/2], for a = 1/2, 1, and 2.
b. Show that the curves have an intersection point x* (other than x = 0) on [0, π/2] that satisfies cos x* = 1/(2a2), provided a > 1/√2.
c. Find the area of the region between the two curves on [0, x*] when a = 1.
d. Show that as a →1/√2+. The area of the region between the two curves on [0, x*] approaches zero.
