As we know that the maximum value of A cos α + B sin α + C is C + √(A2 + B2),

And here the minimum value is C – √(a2 + B2).

(i) Given as f(x) = 12 sin x – 5 cos x

Here, A = -5, B = 12 and C = 0

((-5)2 + 122) ≤ 12 sin x – 5 cos x ≤ ((-5)2 + 122)

(25 + 144) ≤ 12 sin x – 5 cos x ≤ (25 + 144)

169 ≤ 12 sin x – 5 cos x ≤ 169

-13 ≤ 12 sin x – 5 cos x ≤ 13

Thus, the maximum and minimum values of f(x) are 13 and -13 respectively.

(ii)12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4

Given as f(x) = 12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4

Here, A = 12, B = 5 and C = 4

4 – (122 + 52) ≤ 12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + (122 + 52)

4 – (144 + 25) ≤ 12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + (144 + 25)

4 – 169 ≤ 12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + 169

-9 ≤ 12 cos x + 5 sin x + 4 ≤ 17

Thus, the maximum and minimum values of f(x) are -9 and 17 respectively.

(iii)5 cos x + 3 sin (π/6 – x) + 4

Given as f(x) = 5 cos x + 3 sin (π/6 – x) + 4

As we know that, sin (A – B) = sin A cos B – cos A sin B

f(x) = 5 cos x + 3 sin (π/6 – x) + 4

= 5cos x + 3 (sin π/6 cos x – cos π/6 sin x) + 4

= 5 cos x + 3/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4

= 13/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4

Therefore, here A = 13/2, B = – 33/2, C = 4

4 – [(13/2)2 + (-3**√**3/2)2] ≤ 13/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + [(13/2)2 + (-3**√**3/2)2]

4 – [(169/4) + (27/4)] ≤ 13/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + [(169/4) + (27/4)]

4 – 7 ≤ 13/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4 ≤ 4 + 7

-3 ≤ 13/2 cos x – 33/2 sin x + 4 ≤ 11

Thus, the maximum and minimum values of f(x) are -3 and 11 respectively.

(iv) sin x – cos x + 1

Given as f(x) = sin x – cos x + 1

Therefore, here A = -1, B = 1 And c = 1

1 – [(-1)2 + 12] ≤ sin x – cos x + 1 ≤ 1 + [(-1)2 + 12]

1 – (1 + 1) ≤ sin x – cos x + 1 ≤ 1 + (1 + 1)

1 – 2 ≤ sin x – cos x + 1 ≤ 1 + 2

Thus, the maximum and minimum values of f(x) are 1 – 2 and 1 + 2 respectively.
