Let x, y, z be real numbers with x greater or equal than y greater or equal than zgreater or equal than straight pi over 12 such that x+y+z= straight pi over 2 and P = cosx.siny.cosz. then what are the minimum and maximum values of P? Also mention at what values of x,y,z they occur?

Expert Answer:

Given:
 x greater or equal than y greater or equal than zgreater or equal than straight pi over 12 ... (i)
x+y+z= straight pi over 2 ... (ii)
 
P = cosx siny cosz
rightwards double arrow P equals fraction numerator cos z over denominator 2 end fraction open parentheses 2 space cos x space sin y close parentheses rightwards double arrow P equals fraction numerator cos z over denominator 2 end fraction open square brackets sin open parentheses x plus y close parentheses minus sin open parentheses x minus y close parentheses close square brackets less or equal than fraction numerator cos z over denominator 2 end fraction space sin open parentheses x plus y close parentheses rightwards double arrow P less or equal than fraction numerator cos z over denominator 2 end fraction space sin open parentheses straight pi over 2 minus z close parentheses space space... space U sin g space left parenthesis i i right parenthesis rightwards double arrow P less or equal than fraction numerator cos z over denominator 2 end fraction space cos z rightwards double arrow P less or equal than fraction numerator cos squared z over denominator 2 end fraction equals 1 half cross times fraction numerator open parentheses 1 plus cos 2 z close parentheses over denominator 2 end fraction equals fraction numerator open parentheses 1 plus cos 2 z close parentheses over denominator 4 end fraction rightwards double arrow P less or equal than 1 fourth open parentheses 1 plus cos straight pi over 6 close parentheses space space... space U sin g space left parenthesis i right parenthesis rightwards double arrow P less or equal than 1 fourth open parentheses 1 plus fraction numerator square root of 3 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses rightwards double arrow P less or equal than fraction numerator square root of 3 plus 2 over denominator 8 end fraction
