MathematicsContinuity and DifferentiabilityJEE Main 2026

For the function f(x) = − |x|, x ∈ ℝ, consider the following statements: Statement I: f is differentiable for all x ∈ ℝ. Statement II: f is increasing in (−π, −π/2). In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Answer: (A)

Solution

At x=0 the right derivative is cos0·e⁰−1=0 and, using f=+x for x<0, the left derivative is −cos0·e⁰+1=0, so
