Determine whether the function y=tanx is uniformly continuous in the open interval (0,π/2).
I tried approaching it this way
Let x,y∈(0,π/2). Then
|f(x)−f(y)|=|tanx−tany|=|sinxcosy−cosxsinycosxcosy|≤|sin(x−y)|≤|x−y|
Selecting δ=ϵ we have that the given function is uniformly continuous.
Where am i gong wrong ?
Answer
Every uniformly continuous function is bounded on every bounded interval included in its domain of definition. The proof only uses that the real line is Archimedean.
