let ( f(x)={-1+sin (k 1 text { pie } x)}, x ) is rational ( {1+cos (k 2 text { pie } x)}, x ) is irrational if ( f(x) ) is periodic function, then which of the following is correct (a) either ( mathrm{k} 1, mathrm{k} 2 varepsilon ) rational or ( mathrm{k} 1, mathrm{k} 2 varepsilon ) irrational (b) ( mathrm{k} 1, mathrm{k} 2 varepsilon ) rational only (c) ( mathrm{k} 1, mathrm{k} 2 varepsilon ) irational only (d) ( mathrm{k} 1, mathrm{k} 2 mathrm{varepsilon} ) irational such that ( mathrm{k} 1 / mathrm{k} 2 ) is irrational This is a good question... A starting hint is : : let the period of the function be ( P ). ( {-1+sin (k 1 p i e(x+P))}={-1+sin (k 1 p i e x)} ) for rational ( x ) and ( {1+cos (k 2 p i e x)}={1+cos (k 2 p i e(x+P))} ) for irrational
