(B) Given $f(x) = \sin^4 x + \cos^4 x$.We can rewrite this as $f(x) = (\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x)^2 - 2\sin^2 x \cos^2 x = 1 - \frac{1}{2}(2\sin x \cos x)^2 = 1 - \frac{1}{2}\sin^2(2x)$.Differentiating with respect to $x$,we get $f'(x) = -\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2\sin(2x) \cdot \cos(2x) \cdot 2 = -2\sin(2x)\cos(2x) = -\sin(4x)$.The function $f(x)$ increases if $f'(x) > 0$,which means $-\sin(4x) > 0$,or $\sin(4x) This inequality holds when $\pi Dividing by $4$,we get $\pi/4 Comparing this with the given options,the interval $\pi/4 Thus,the function increases in the interval given by option $B$.
