Answer

$$ f^{\prime \prime}(\theta)=\sin \theta+\cos \theta ,\quad f(0)=3 ,\quad f^{\prime}(0)=4 $$ The required function is $$ f(\theta)=-\sin \theta-\cos \theta+5 \theta+4 $$

Work Step by Step

$$ f^{\prime \prime}(\theta)=\sin \theta+\cos \theta ,\quad f(0)=3 ,\quad f^{\prime}(0)=4 $$ The general anti-derivative of $ f^{\prime \prime}(\theta)=\sin \theta+\cos \theta $ is $$ f^{\prime}(\theta)=-\cos \theta+\sin \theta+C $$ To determine C we use the fact that $f^{\prime}(0)=4$: $$ f^{\prime}(0)=-\cos (0)+\sin (0)+C =4 $$ $ \Rightarrow $ $$ -1+C=4\quad \Rightarrow \quad C=5, $$ so $$ f^{\prime}(\theta)=-\cos \theta+\sin \theta+5 $$ Using the anti-differentiation rules once more, we find that: $$ f(\theta)=-\sin \theta-\cos \theta+5 \theta+D $$ To determine D we use the fact that $f(0)=3 $: $$ f(0)=-\sin (0)-\cos (0)+5 (0)+D=3 $$ $ \Rightarrow $ $$ -1+D=3\quad \Rightarrow \quad D=4, $$ so the required function is $$ f(\theta)=-\sin \theta-\cos \theta+5 \theta+4 $$
