Correct answer
DNone of these

Step-by-step explanation

2y=cot-13cosx+sinxcosx-3sinx2

=cot-13+tanx1-3tanx2

=cot-1tanπ3+x2

=cot-1cotπ2-π3+x 2

2y=π6-x2, x0,π6π+π6-x2, xπ6,π2

 2dydx=2π6-x.-1dydx=x-π6, x0,π6

And dydx=x-7π6, xπ6,π2
Left Hand and Right Hand Derivatives are not same so function is non derivable at x=π6.

Hence, dydx does not exist for all values in the given interval.
