Answer:

Let. Then,

Question 12:

Find the value of 

Answer:

Question 13:

Find the value of 

Answer:

Let x = tan θ. Then, θ = tan⁻¹ x.

Let y = tan Φ. Then, Φ = tan⁻¹ y.

Question 14:

If, then find the value of x.

Answer:

On squaring both sides, we get:

Hence, the value of x is

Question 15:

If, then find the value of x.

Answer:

Hence, the value of x is 

Question 16:

Find the values of 

Answer:

We know that sin⁻¹ (sin x) = x if, which is the principal value branch of sin⁻¹x.

Here,

Now, can be written as:

Question 17:

Find the values of 

Answer:

We know that tan⁻¹ (tan x) = x if, which is the principal value branch of tan⁻¹x.

Here,

Now, can be written as:

Question 18:

Find the values of 

Answer:

Let. Then,

Question 19:

Find the values of is equal to

(A)  (B)  (C)  (D) 

Answer:

We know that cos⁻¹ (cos x) = x if, which is the principal value branch of cos ⁻¹x.

Here,

Now, can be written as:

cos-1cos7π6 = cos-1cosπ+π6cos-1cos7π6 = cos-1- cosπ6             as, cosπ+θ = – cos θcos-1cos7π6  = cos-1- cosπ-5π6cos-1cos7π6 = cos-1– cos 5π6   as, cosπ-θ = – cos θ

The correct answer is B.

(A) π (B)  (C) 0 (D) 

Answer:

Let. Then,

We know that the range of the principal value branch of

Let.

The range of the principal value branch of

The correct answer is B.
