    Solving x<sin(x)<x w/ Mean Value Theorem

    ok, now i got: f(x)=sin(x) a=0 b=x f(x)-f(0)= f'(c) (x-0) sin(x) =cos(c) (x) sin(x)/x=cos(c) im stucked there... i don't know what you mean with the the maximum and minimum values of cosine of any number.

    Solving x<sin(x)<x w/ Mean Value Theorem

    i had: f(x)=sin(x) a=-x b=x f(x)-f(-x)= f'(c) (x+x) sin(x) = sin(x)=cos(c) (2x) 2sin(x)=2cos(xc) tan(x)=c i don't know if that's right, but i don't get the result. i would appreciate your help.
