Given the function () whose graph is symmetric about the point , and the function has a minimum value at , find a possible value of in the interval .
Problem 138
Official solution
Since the function () is symmetric about the point ,
we have (),
Also, the function has a minimum value at , so (),
Solving the system of equations and , we obtain and ().
Thus, ,
And ().
Given that , we have and .
Therefore, the answer is .
By analyzing the function and utilizing its symmetry, we can derive and (). From this, we can calculate and subsequently (), which enables us to find the answer. This problem primarily evaluates the understanding of the symmetry point, symmetry axis, and period of a sine and cosine function, making it a moderately difficult question.
