Define f(x) = sinx on [0, 2pi]. Find two increasing functions h and g for which f = h — g on
[0, 2pi].
We will search the functions which are . We have . The functions are strictly increasing if on . Thus we need to find two positive continuous functions such that . For we need to take something that is always strictly bigger than , for example, . In this case . Both are always positive. Now by finding their primitives , we see that the difference of such two functions is clearly and they both are strictly increasing, as their derivatives are positive.
