If the set of all values of the parameter 'a' for which the function

f(x) = sin2x – 8(a + 1) sin x + (4a 2 + 8a – 14) x increases for all x ∈ R and has no critical points for all x ∈ R, is (– ∞ , –m – ) ∪ ( , ∞ ) then (m 2 + n 2 ) is (where m, n are prime numbers) :

The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.

f ′ (x) = 4

Let φ (t) = t 2 – 2(a + 1)t + a 2 + 2a – 4, –1 ≤ t ≤ 1

It is sufficient to find values of t when φ (t) = 0 has no root in [–1, 1]

D = 20

Case- Ι :

φ (–1) > 0 , a + 1 < –1, D = 20 > 0

⇒ a ∈ and a < –2

⇒ a ∈

Case - ΙΙ :

φ (1) > 0, a + 1 > 1, D = 20 > 0

⇒ a ∈ and a > 0

⇒ a ∈
