1. Prove $3{\sin ^{ - 1}}x = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {3x - 4{x^3}} \right),x \in \left[ { - \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{2}} \right]$

Ans: To Prove $3{\sin ^{ - 1}}x = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {3x - 4{x^3}} \right)$, where $x \in \left[ { - \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{2}} \right]$

Let $x = \sin \theta .$ Then, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}x = \theta $.

We have given that,

R.H.S ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {3x - 4{x^3}} \right) = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {3\sin \theta  - 4{{\sin }^3}\theta } \right)$

$ = {\sin ^{ - 1}}(\sin 3\theta )$

$ = 3\theta $

$ = 3{\sin ^{ - 1}}x = L.H.S$

Hence proved.

2. Prove $3{\cos ^{ - 1}}x = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {4{x^3} - 3x} \right),x \in \left[ {\dfrac{1}{2},1} \right]$

Ans: To Prove $3{\cos ^{ - 1}}x = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {4{x^3} - 3x} \right),x \in \left[ {\dfrac{1}{2},1} \right]$

Let $x = \cos \theta $. Then, ${\cos ^{ - 1}}x = \theta $

We have given that,

R.H S =${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {4{x^3} - 3x} \right)$

$ = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {4{{\cos }^3}\theta  - 3\cos \theta } \right)$

$ = {\cos ^{ - 1}}(\cos 3\theta )$

$ = 3\theta $

$ = 3{\cos ^{ - 1}}x = L.H.S$

Hence proved.

3. Prove ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{2}{{11}}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{7}{{24}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)$

Ans: We have to prove that: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{2}{{11}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{7}{{24}} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2}$

Consider, L.H.S. ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{2}{{11}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{7}{{24}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\dfrac{2}{{11}} + \dfrac{7}{{24}}}}{{1 - \left( {\dfrac{2}{{11}} \cdot \dfrac{7}{{24}}} \right)}}\quad \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{11 \times 24}}{{\dfrac{{11 \times 24 - 14}}{{11 \times 24}}}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{48 + 77}}{{264 - 14}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{125}}{{250}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{1}{2}} \right) = $ R.H.S.

Hence proved.

4. Prove $2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{31}}{{17}}$

Ans:  To prove: $2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{31}}{{17}}$

${\text{L}}{\text{.H}}{\text{.S}} = 2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7}$ 

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{2}}}{{1 - {{\left( {\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)}^2}}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7}\left[ {2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{2x}}{{1 - {x^2}}}} \right]$

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{{\left( {\dfrac{3}{4}} \right)}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7}$

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{4}{3} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{7}$

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\dfrac{4}{3} + \dfrac{1}{7}}}{{1 - \dfrac{4}{3} \cdot \dfrac{1}{7}}}\left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right]$

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\dfrac{{28 + 3}}{{21}}}}{{\dfrac{{21 - 4}}{{21}}}}} \right)$ 

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{31}}{{17}} = {\text{ R}}{\text{.H}}{\text{.S}}{\text{.}}$

5. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\sqrt {1 + {x^2}}  - 1}}{x},x \ne 0$

Ans: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\sqrt {1 + {x^2}}  - 1}}{x}$

By putting $x = \tan \theta  \Rightarrow \theta  = {\tan ^{ - 1}}x$

$\therefore {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\sqrt {1 + {x^2}}  - 1}}{x} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{\sqrt {1 + {{\tan }^2}\theta }  - 1}}{{\tan \theta }}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\sec \theta  - 1}}{{\tan \theta }}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - \cos \theta }}{{\sin \theta }}} \right)$

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{2{{\sin }^2}\left( {\dfrac{\theta }{2}} \right)}}{{2\sin \dfrac{\theta }{2}\cos \dfrac{\theta }{2}}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{\theta }{2}} \right) = \dfrac{\theta }{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}{\tan ^{ - 1}}x$

6. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}} \right),|x| > 1$

Ans: We have given that ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }},|x| > 1$

By putting  $x = \operatorname{cosec} \theta  \Rightarrow \theta  = {\operatorname{cosec} ^{ - 1}}x$

$\therefore {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {\cos e{c^2}\theta  - 1} }}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{1}{{\cot \theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\tan \theta )$

$ = \theta $

$ = \cos e{c^{ - 1}}x$

$ = \dfrac{\pi }{2} - {\sec ^{ - 1}}x\quad \left[ {As,\cos e{c^{ - 1}}x + {{\sec }^{ - 1}}x = \dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$

7. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {\dfrac{{1 - \cos x}}{{1 + \cos x}}} } \right),x < \pi $

Ans: Given that,${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {\dfrac{{1 - \cos x}}{{1 + \cos x}}} } \right),x < \pi $

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {\dfrac{{1 - \cos x}}{{1 + \cos x}}} } \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {\dfrac{{2{{\sin }^2}\dfrac{x}{2}}}{{2{{\cos }^2}\dfrac{x}{2}}}} } \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\sin \dfrac{x}{2}}}{{\cos \dfrac{x}{2}}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{x}{2}} \right)$

$ = \dfrac{x}{2}$

8. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\cos x - \sin x}}{{\cos x + \sin x}}} \right),0 < x < \pi $

Ans: We have given that, ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\cos x - \sin x}}{{\cos x + \sin x}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - \left( {\dfrac{{\sin x}}{{\cos x}}} \right)}}{{1 + \left( {\dfrac{{\sin x}}{{\cos x}}} \right)}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - \tan x}}{{1 + \tan x}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(1) - {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\tan x)\quad \left[ {\because \quad \dfrac{{ - y}}{{x - xy}} = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}x - {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y} \right]$

$ = \dfrac{\pi }{4} - x$

9. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{x}{{\sqrt {{a^2} - {x^2}} }},|x| < a$

Ans: We have given that,${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{x}{{\sqrt {{a^2} - {x^2}} }}$

Let’s consider, $x = a\sin \theta  \Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{a} = \sin \theta  \Rightarrow {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{x}{a}} \right)$

$\therefore {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{x}{{\sqrt {{a^2} - {x^2}} }}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{a\sin \theta }}{{\sqrt {{a^2} - {a^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta } }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{a\sin \theta }}{{a\sqrt {1 - {{\sin }^2}\theta } }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{a\sin \theta }}{{a\cos \theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\tan \theta ) = \theta  = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{x}{a}$

10. Write the function in the simplest form: ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{3{a^2}x - {x^3}}}{{{a^3} - 3a{x^2}}}} \right),a > 0;\dfrac{{ - a}}{{\sqrt 3 }} \leqslant x \leqslant \dfrac{a}{{\sqrt 3 }}$

Ans: Consider, ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{3{a^2}x - {x^3}}}{{{a^3} - 3a{x^2}}}} \right)$

Let’s consider, $x = a\tan \theta  \Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{a} = \tan \theta  \Rightarrow \theta  = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{x}{a}} \right)$

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{3{a^2}x - {x^3}}}{{{a^3} - 3a{x^2}}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{3{a^2} \cdot a\tan \theta  - {a^3}{{\tan }^3}\theta }}{{{a^3} - 3a \cdot {a^2}{{\tan }^2}\theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{3{a^3}\tan \theta  - {a^3}{{\tan }^3}\theta }}{{{a^3} - 3{a^3}{{\tan }^2}\theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\tan 3\theta )$

$ = 3\theta $

$ = 3{\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{x}{a}$

11. Find the value of ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {2\cos \left( {2{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)} \right]$

Ans: Let’s consider, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2} = x$

Then $\sin x = \dfrac{1}{2} = \sin \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{6}} \right)$

$\therefore {\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{\pi }{6}$

$\therefore {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {2\cos \left( {2{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {2\cos \left( {2 \times \dfrac{\pi }{6}} \right)} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {2\cos \dfrac{\pi }{3}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {2 \times \dfrac{1}{2}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}1 = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

12. Find the value of $\cot \left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}a + {{\cot }^{ - 1}}a} \right)$

Ans: We have given that, $\cot \left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}a + {{\cot }^{ - 1}}a} \right)$

$ = \cot \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right)\quad \left[ {\because \quad  - {{\cot }^{ - 1}}x = \dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$

$ = 0$

13. Find the value of $\tan \dfrac{1}{2}\left[ {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{2x}}{{1 + {x^2}}} + {{\cos }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{1 - {y^2}}}{{1 + {y^2}}}} \right],|x| < 1,y > 0$ and $xy < 1$

Ans: Let consider, $x = \tan \theta $.

Then, $\theta  = {\tan ^{ - 1}}x$.

$\therefore {\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{2x}}{{1 + {x^2}}} = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{2\tan \theta }}{{1 + {{\tan }^2}\theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\sin ^{ - 1}}(\sin 2\theta )$

$ = 2\theta $

$ = 2{\tan ^{ - 1}}x$

Let’s assume, $y = \tan \theta .$ Then, $\theta  = {\tan ^{ - 1}}y$.

$\therefore {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - {y^2}}}{{1 + {y^2}}}} \right)$

$ = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - {{\tan }^2}\theta }}{{1 + {{\tan }^2}\theta }}} \right)$

$ = {\cos ^{ - 1}}(\cos 2\theta )$

$ = 2\theta  = 2{\tan ^{ - 1}}y$

$\therefore \tan \dfrac{1}{2}\left[ {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{2x}}{{1 + {x^2}}}} \right) + {{\cos }^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{1 - {y^2}}}{{1 + {y^2}}}} \right)} \right]$

$ = \tan \dfrac{1}{2}\left[ {2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + 2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}y} \right]$

$\left[ {As,{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right]$

$ = \tan \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right)} \right]$

$ = \dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}$

14. If $\sin \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5} + {{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 1$, then find the value of ${\text{x}}$.

Ans: We have given that,$\sin \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5} + {{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 1$

$ \Rightarrow \sin \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5}} \right)\cos \left( {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) + \cos \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5}} \right)\sin \left( {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 1$

$[\because \quad B) = \sin A \cdot \cos B + \cos A \cdot \sin B]$

$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{5} \cdot x + \cos \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5}} \right)\sin \left( {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 1$

$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{5} + \cos \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5}} \right)\sin \left( {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 1$

Now, let consider ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5} = y$

Therefore,

${\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5} = y$

$\sin y = \dfrac{1}{5}$

$ \Rightarrow \cos y = \sqrt {1 - {{\left( {\dfrac{1}{5}} \right)}^2}}  = \dfrac{{2\sqrt 6 }}{5}$

$ \Rightarrow y = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{2\sqrt 6 }}{5}} \right)$

$\therefore {\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{1}{5} = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{2\sqrt 6 }}{5}} \right)$

Let’s assume ${\cos ^{ - 1}}x = z$.

Then, $\cos z = x$

$ \Rightarrow \sin z = \sqrt {1 - {x^2}} $

$ \Rightarrow z = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} } \right)$

$\therefore {\cos ^{ - 1}}x = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} } \right)$... (3)

From equations  (1), (2) and (3) we have:

$\dfrac{x}{5} + \cos \left( {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{2\sqrt 6 }}{5}} \right) \cdot \sin \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} } \right) = 1$

$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{5} + \dfrac{{2\sqrt 6 }}{5} \cdot \sqrt {1 - {x^2}}  = 1$

$ \Rightarrow x + 2\sqrt 6 \sqrt {1 - {x^2}}  = 5$

$ \Rightarrow 2\sqrt 6 \sqrt {1 - {x^2}}  = 5 - x$

Squaring on both sides, we get:

${(2\sqrt 6 )^2}\left( {1 - {x^2}} \right) = 25 + {x^2} - 10x$

$ \Rightarrow (4 \times 6)\left( {1 - {x^2}} \right) = 25 + {x^2} - 10x$

$ \Rightarrow 24 - 24{x^2} = 25 + {x^2} - 10x$

$ \Rightarrow 25{x^2} - 10x + 1 = 0$

$ \Rightarrow {(5x - 1)^2} = 0$

$ \Rightarrow (5x - 1) = 0$

$ \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{1}{5}$

Therefore, the value of $x$ is $\dfrac{1}{5}$.

15. If ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x - 1}}{{x - 2}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + 1}}{{x + 2}} = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$, then find the value of ${\text{x}}$.

Ans: We have given that, ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x - 1}}{{x - 2}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + 1}}{{x + 2}} = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\dfrac{{\dfrac{{x - 1}}{{x - 2}} + \dfrac{{x + 1}}{{x + 2}}}}{{1 - \left( {\dfrac{{x - 1}}{{x + 2}}} \right)\left( {\dfrac{{x + 1}}{{x + 2}}} \right)}}} \right] = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$\left[ {As,{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right]$

$ \Rightarrow {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\dfrac{{(x - 1)(x + 2) + (x + 1)(x - 2)}}{{(x + 2)(x - 2) - (x - 1)(x + 1)}}} \right] = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\dfrac{{{x^2} + x - 2 + {x^2} - x - 2}}{{{x^2} - 4 - {x^2} + 1}}} \right] = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\dfrac{{2{x^2} - 4}}{{ - 3}}} \right] = \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow \tan \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{4 - 2{x^2}}}{3}} \right] = \tan \dfrac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{4 - 2{x^2}}}{3} = 1$

$ \Rightarrow 4 - 2{x^2} = 3$

$ \Rightarrow 2{x^2} = 4 - 3 = 1$

$ \Rightarrow x =  \pm \dfrac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$

Therefore, the value of ${\text{x}}$ is $ \pm \dfrac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$.

16. Find the values of ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right)$

Ans: Let’s consider, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right)$

As we know that ${\sin ^{ - 1}}(\sin x) = x$

If $x \in \left[ { - \dfrac{\pi }{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$, which is the principal value branch of ${\sin ^{ - 1}}x$.

Here, $\dfrac{{2\pi }}{3} \notin \left[ {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$

Now, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right)$ can be written as:

${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right)$

$ = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\sin \left( {\pi  - \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right)} \right]$

$ = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{\pi }{3}} \right)$, where $\dfrac{\pi }{3} \in \left[ {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$

$\therefore {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sin \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3}} \right) = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\sin \dfrac{\pi }{3}} \right] = \dfrac{\pi }{3}$

17. Find the values of ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{{3\pi }}{4}} \right)$

Ans: Let’s Consider, ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{{3\pi }}{4}} \right)$

As we know that ${\tan ^{ - 1}}(\tan x) = x$

If $x \in \left( { - \dfrac{\pi }{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right)$, which is the principal value branch of ${\tan ^{ - 1}}x$. Here, $\dfrac{{3\pi }}{4} \notin \left( { - \dfrac{\pi }{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right)$.

Now, ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{{3\pi }}{4}} \right)$ can be written as:

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{{3\pi }}{4}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ { - \tan \left( {\dfrac{{ - 3\pi }}{4}} \right)} \right] = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ { - \tan \left( {\pi  - \dfrac{\pi }{4}} \right)} \right]$

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( { - \tan \dfrac{\pi }{4}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\tan \left( {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{4}} \right)} \right]$ where $ - \dfrac{\pi }{4} \in \left( { - \dfrac{\pi }{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right)$

$\therefore {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\tan \dfrac{{3\pi }}{4}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\tan \left( {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{4}} \right)} \right] = \dfrac{{ - \pi }}{4}$

18. Find the values of $\tan \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{5} + {{\cot }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{2}} \right)$

Ans: Let’s consider, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{5} = x$.

Then, $\sin x = \dfrac{3}{5}$

$ \Rightarrow \cos x = \sqrt {1 - {{\sin }^2}x}  = \dfrac{4}{5}$

$ \Rightarrow \sec x = \dfrac{5}{4}$

$\therefore \tan x = \sqrt {{{\sec }^2}x - 1}  = \sqrt {\dfrac{{25}}{{16}} - 1}  = \dfrac{3}{4}$

$\therefore x = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{4}$

$\therefore {\sin ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{5} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{4}\quad  \ldots (i)$

Therefore, $\tan \left( {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{5} + {{\cot }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{2}} \right)$

$ = \tan \left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{3}{4} + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{2}{3}} \right)\quad $ [Using (i) and (ii)]

$ = \tan \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{\dfrac{3}{4} + \dfrac{2}{3}}}{{1 - \dfrac{3}{4} \cdot \dfrac{2}{3}}}} \right)} \right]$

$\left[ {As,{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}y = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{x + y}}{{1 - xy}}} \right]$

$ = \tan \left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{9 + 8}}{{12 - 6}}} \right)$

$ = \tan \left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{17}}{6}} \right) = \dfrac{{17}}{6}$

19. Find the values of ${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}} \right)$ is equal to

(A) $\dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}$

(B) $\dfrac{{5\pi }}{6}$

(C) $\dfrac{\pi }{3}$

(D) $\dfrac{\pi }{6}$

Ans: We know that ${\cos ^{ - 1}}(\cos x) = x$ if $x \in [0,\pi ]$, which is the principal value branch of ${\cos ^{ - 1}}x$. Here, $\dfrac{{7\pi }}{6} \notin [0,\pi ]$.

Now, ${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}} \right)$ can be written as:

${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}} \right) = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{ - 7\pi }}{6}} \right) = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\cos \left( {2\pi  - \dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}} \right)} \right]\quad [\because $

$ + x) = \cos x]$

$\therefore {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{7\pi }}{6}} \right) = {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \dfrac{{5\pi }}{6}} \right) = \dfrac{{5\pi }}{6}$

The correct answer is ${\text{B}}$.

20. Find the values of $\sin \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{3} - {{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( { - \dfrac{1}{2}} \right)} \right)$ is equal to

(A) $\dfrac{1}{2}$

(B) $\dfrac{1}{3}$

(C) $\dfrac{1}{4}$

(D) 1

Ans: Let’s consider, ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{ - 1}}{2}} \right) = x$.

Then, $\sin x = \dfrac{{ - 1}}{2} =  - \sin \dfrac{\pi }{6} = \sin \left( {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{6}} \right)$.

As we know that the range of the principal value branch of ${\sin ^{ - 1}}$ is $\left[ {\dfrac{{ - \pi }}{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right]$. ${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{ - 1}}{2}} \right) = \dfrac{\pi }{6}$

$\therefore \sin \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{3} - {{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {\dfrac{{ - 1}}{2}} \right)} \right) = \sin \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{3} + \dfrac{\pi }{6}} \right) = \sin \left( {\dfrac{{3\pi }}{6}} \right) = \sin \left( {\dfrac{\pi }{2}} \right) = 1$

The correct answer is ${\text{D}}$.

21. $\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})-\cot ^{-1}(-\sqrt{3})$ is equal to

(A) $\pi$

(B) $-\dfrac{\pi}{2}$

(C) 0

(D) $2 \sqrt{3}$

Ans:

Suppose that,

$A=\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})-\cot ^{-1}(-\sqrt{3})$

As we know that,

$\cot ^{-1}(-x)=\pi-\cot ^{-1}(x)$

So,

$\cot ^{-1}(-\sqrt{3})=\pi-\cot ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$

Put the value in the equation (i),

$A=\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})-\pi+\cot ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$

As we know that,

$\cot ^{-1} x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}-\tan ^{-1} x$

So,

$\cot ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})=\dfrac{\pi}{2}-\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$

Put the value in the equation (ii),

$A=\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})-\pi+\dfrac{\pi}{2}-\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3}) $

$A=-\dfrac{\pi}{2}$

Hence, the correct option is B.
