JEE Main 2024 — Application of Derivatives Question with Solution

$\begin{aligned} & f(x)=3 \sqrt{x-2}+\sqrt{4-x} \\ & x-2 \geq 0 \& 4-x \geq 0 \\ & \therefore x \in[2,4] \end{aligned}$<br/>Let$x=2 \sin ^2 \theta+4 \cos ^2 \theta$ $\begin{aligned} & \therefore \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=3 \sqrt{2}|\cos \theta|+\sqrt{2}|\sin \theta| \\ & \therefore \sqrt{2} \leq 3 \sqrt{2}|\cos \theta|+\sqrt{2}|\sin \theta| \leq \sqrt{9 \times 2+2} \\ & \sqrt{2} \leq 3 \sqrt{2}|\cos \theta|+\sqrt{2}|\sin \theta| \leq \sqrt{20} \\ & \therefore \alpha=\sqrt{2} \quad \beta=\sqrt{20} \\ & \alpha^2+2 \beta^2=2+40=42 \end{aligned}$
