How does the 5th line of solution come?

Question:
If f(x) = 4(|Sin x |+|cosx|), then find the range of f(x).
Options:
A) (4, 4)
B) (0, 4\(\sqrt[]{2}\))
C) 4,4\(\sqrt[]{2}\)
D) ⌊0, \(\sqrt[]{2}\)⌋
Solution:

Ans: (c) Given f(x) = 4[|Sin x |+|cosx|]

sin2x |Sin x |and cos2x ≤|cos x |

sin2x + cos2x ≤ |Sin x |+|cos x |

i.e., 1 ≤ |Sin x |+|cos x | |Sin x |+|cos x |≥ 1

also the maximum value of Sinx + Cosx is \(\sqrt[]{1+1}\) =\(\sqrt[]{2}\)

|Sin x|+|cos x|≤  \(\sqrt[]{2}\)

∴ 1 ≤ |Sin x|+|cos x|≤  \(\sqrt[]{2}\)

⇒ 4 ≤ 4 [|Sin x |+|cosx|] ≤ 4\(\sqrt[]{2}\)
