Consider the function f(x)=2sin⁡2x−cos⁡xf(x)=2\sin 2x-\cos x on the closed interval [0,2π][0,2\pi]. (a) Find all critical points of f(x)f(x) in the given interval. (b) Classify each critical point obtained in part (a) as a local maximum or a local minimum. (c) Determine the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f(x)f(x) on [0,2π][0,2\pi].
