Answer:

Question 15:

Solveis equal to

(A)  (B)  (C)  (D) 

Answer:

Let tan⁻¹ x = y. Then, 

The correct answer is D.

Question 16:

Solve, then x is equal to

(A)  (B)  (C) 0 (D) 

Answer:

Therefore, from equation (1), we have

Put x = sin y. Then, we have:

But, when, it can be observed that:

 is not the solution of the given equation.

Thus, x = 0.

Hence, the correct answer is C.
