Detailed Solution

f(x)=x100+sin⁡x−1 ∴f(x)=100x99+cos⁡x

 if 0<x<π2, then f′(x)>0. Therefore, 

f(x) is increasing on (0,π/2). 

 if 0<x<1, Then 100x99>0 and cos⁡x>0

[∵x lies between 0 and 1 radian ]

∴f′(x)=100x99+cos⁡x>0

 Thus, f(x) is increasing on (0,1) if π2<x<π, 

 then 100x99>100∵x>1⇒x99>1

 or 100x99+cos⁡x>0

∵cos⁡x≥−1⇒100x99+cos⁡x>99

f′(x)>0 implies f(x) is increasing in (π/2,π).
