Question:

If $g(x)=\int\limits_0^x \cos ^4 t d t$, then $g(x+\pi)$ equals

Options:

$g(x)+g(\pi)$

$g(x)-g(\pi)$

$f(x) g(\pi)$

$g(x) / g(\pi)$

Correct Answer:

$g(x)+g(\pi)$

Explanation:

We have,

$g(x)=\int\limits_0^x \cos ^4 t d t$

∴  $g(x+\pi)=\int\limits_0^{x+\pi} \cos ^4 t d t=\int\limits_0^\pi \cos ^4 t d t+\int\limits_\pi^{x+\pi} \cos ^4 t d t$

$\Rightarrow g(x+\pi)=g(\pi)+\int\limits_0^x \cos ^4(u+\pi)$, where $t=u+\pi$

$\Rightarrow g(x+\pi)=g(\pi)+g(x)$
