Definition of local maximum and local minimum :

\

1. The number \"\" is a local maximum value of \"\" if \"\" when \"\" is near \"\".

\

2.The number \"\" is a local minimum value of \"\" if \"\" when \"\" is near \"\".

\

Definition of absolute maximum and absolute minimum :

\

Let \"\" be a number in the domain \"\" of a function \"\".

\

1.The number \"\" is a absolute maximum value of \"\" on \"\" if \"\" for all \"\" in \"\".

\

2.The number \"\" is a absolute minimum value of \"\" on \"\" if \"\" for all \"\" in \"\".

Graph :

\

1) Draw the co-ordinate plane. 

\

2) Plot the points.

\

3) Connect the points with a smooth curve.

\

Observe the graph.

\

The range of cosine function is \"\".

\

Since \"\" when \"\" is near \"\", local minimum is \"\".

\

Since \"\" when \"\" is near \"\", local minimum is \"\".

\

Since \"\" on its domain \"\", absolute minimum is \"\".

\

Since \"\" on its domain \"\", absolute minimum is \"\".

\

Since \"\" when \"\" is near \"\", local maximum is \"\".
