Question: (a) Use the Mean-Value Theorem to show that if \(f\) is differentiable on an open interval \(I\), and if \(\left|f^{\prime}(x)\right| \geq M\) for all values of \(x\) in \(I\), then

\[|f(x)-f(y)| \geq M|x-y|\]

for all values of \(x\) and \(y\) in \(I\).

(b) Use the result in part (a) to show that

\[|\tan x-\tan y| \geq|x-y|\]

for all values of \(x\) and \(y\) in the interval \((-\pi / 2, \pi / 2)\)

(c) Use the result in part (b) to show that

\[|\tan x+\tan y| \geq|x+y|\]

for all values of \(x\) and \(y\) in the interval \((-\pi / 2, \pi / 2)\).
