Answer

D. $$\left( {{1 \over 2},1} \right)$$

Explanation

Given, $$f\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\begin{matrix} {{k_1}{{\left( {x - \pi } \right)}^2} - 1,} & {x \le \pi } \\ {{k_2}\cos x,} & {x > \pi } \\ \end{matrix} } \right.$$ Differentiating one time, $$f'\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\begin{matrix} {2{k_1}\left( {x - \pi } \right),} & {x \le \pi } \\ { - {k_2}\sin x,} & {x > \pi } \\ \end{matrix} } \right.$$ Differentiating one more time, $$f''\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\begin{matrix} {2{k_1},} & {x \le \pi } \\ { - {k_2}\cos x,} & {x > \pi } \\ \end{matrix} } \right.$$ As f''(x) is differentiable so f''($$\pi $$+) = f''($$\pi $$-) $$ \Rightarrow $$ -k2(-1) = 2k1 $$ \Rightarrow $$ 2k1 = k2 $$ \therefore $$ (k1, k2) = $$\left( {{1 \over 2},1} \right)$$
