Use the function #f(x) = sin(x)+cos(x)#, where #0 <= x <= pi#, to answer the following. Help!?
A) Determine all stationary points. Classify the points as relative minima or maxima.
B) Locate any points of inflection.
C) Determine the endpoints of the interval and sketch the graph.

Stationary points are by definitions the points where:
In the interval
As:
the point is a local maximum.
To find points of inflections solve the equation:
#-cosx -sinx =0
In the interval
At the limits of the interval:
To sketch the function however we can note that:
Thus
graph{sinx+cosx [-0.01, 3.15, -2, 2]}
