As we have learnt,

  • If period of f(x) is T, then period of f(cx+d) is T/|c|
  • If period of f(x) is T1 and period of g(x) is T2, then period for f(x) + g(x) is the lcm of T1 and T2 
  • Period of |sin(x)| and |cos(x)| is π

 

Now, 

As period of |sin(x)| is π, so  period of |sin(4x)| is π/4, and

As period of |cos(x)| is π,  period of |cos(2x)| is π/2

So period of |sin(4x)| +  |cos(2x)| is the lcm of π/4 and π/2, which is π/2
