    understand the concept of local maxima, local minima. PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED 1. A function f(x) is said to have a local maximum value at x = a if f(a) is greatest of all its values for x in some open interval around a. The point a is called a local maximum of f(x). (Fig. 1.) Fig. 1 2. A function fix) is said to have a local minimum value at x = a if f(x) is smallest of all its for x in some open interval around a. ‘The point a is called a local minimum of fx). (Fig. 2.) gh x = a, then fla is @ local maximum a particular value x = a, f(a) 0 and the sign of f “(x) aT through x = a, then f(a) is a local minimum value and a, a local REQUIRED + Pencils of different colours « Geometry box + Adhesive « Pair of scissors PROCEDURE 0 w (iii) Take a rectangular piece of coloured paper and draw the Xaxis and Y-axis. Draw a function on the paper. Let this function be denoted by y = flx), (Fig. 3) Place a scale on the X-axis and move it above and parallel to the X-axis till it touches some point/ points on the curve. (iv) wy) (vi) In Fig, 3, we see that the horizontal scale touches the curve at the points A, B, C, D and E. Take a point on the curve to the immediate left of A and draw a tangent to meet the X-axis at A,. Take a point on the curve to the immediate right of A and draw a tangent to meet the X-axis at A. (vii) Similarly, draw tangents corresponding to B, C, D and E. (Fig. 3) (vii) Attach Fig. 3 with the notebook. ; OBSERVATIONS ( Inclination of tangent through A, is an acute angle. + Slope of tangent through A, is +ve. Sign of f (x) on the left of A is +ve. local maximum point on the curve of y = fix). B is a local minimum point, C is a local maximum point, D is a d E is a local maximum point on the curve of y (x). given function y = fix), the curve has local maximum values corresponding to A, nimum values corresponding to B and D. the curve of y = sin x, x € (0, 2n] and verify that the function has local maximum v and local minimum value at x = 3n/2.
