Answer 1

Hint:We will first simplify left hand side of the equation by using inverse trigonometric formulas \[2{{\tan }^{-1}}x={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{2x}{1-{{x}^{2}}} \right)\] and \[{{\tan }^{-1}}x-{{\tan }^{-1}}y={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{x-y}{1+xy} \right)\]. Then we will equate it to the right hand side of the expression by converting cot in terms of tan.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Before proceeding with the question let us know some of the inverse trigonometric formulas. We know that \[2{{\tan }^{-1}}x={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{2x}{1-{{x}^{2}}} \right)........(1)\].
We also know that \[{{\tan }^{-1}}x-{{\tan }^{-1}}y={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{x-y}{1+xy} \right)........(2)\].
First assuming \[t=\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}}} \right)\]. We will first simplify the first term of the right hand side of the expression by using equation (1) and substituting t and we get,
\[\Rightarrow 2{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{4{{x}^{2}}}} \right)=2{{\tan }^{-1}}\dfrac{t}{2}={{\tan }^{-1}}\dfrac{2\times \dfrac{t}{2}}{1-\dfrac{{{t}^{2}}}{4}}.........(3)\]
Now rearranging equation (3) by taking LCM and cancelling similar terms we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\dfrac{4t}{4-{{t}^{2}}}.........(4)\]
Now right hand side of the expression is,
\[\Rightarrow 2{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{4{{x}^{2}}}} \right)-{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}}} \right).....(5)\]
Substituting for the first term in equation (5) from equation (4) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\dfrac{4t}{4-{{t}^{2}}}-{{\tan }^{-1}}t.....(6)\]
Now using equation (2) in equation (6) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{\dfrac{4t}{4-{{t}^{2}}}-t}{1+\dfrac{4t}{4-{{t}^{2}}}\times t} \right)={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{4t-4t+{{t}^{3}}}{4-{{t}^{2}}+4{{t}^{2}}} \right).....(7)\]
Now cancelling similar terms in equation (7) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{{{t}^{3}}}{4+3{{t}^{2}}} \right).....(8)\]
Now converting the left hand side of the expression in terms of tan inverse we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{\cot }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{y}{\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}} \right)={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}}{y} \right)........(9)\]
Now we equate equation (8) and equation (9),
\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}}{y} \right)={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{{{t}^{3}}}{4+3{{t}^{2}}} \right).....(10)\]
So from equation (10) tan inverse gets cancelled on both sides and we get,
\[\Rightarrow \left( \sqrt{\dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}} \right)=\left( \dfrac{{{t}^{3}}}{4+3{{t}^{2}}} \right).....(11)\]
Squaring both sides of equation (11) and rearranging equation (11) we get,
\[\begin{align}
  & \Rightarrow {{\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \dfrac{{{t}^{3}}}{4+3{{t}^{2}}} \right)}^{2}} \\
 & \Rightarrow \dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}=\dfrac{{{t}^{6}}}{16+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}}.....(12) \\
\end{align}\]
Now separately dividing the terms by denominator in left hand side of equation (12) we get,
\[\Rightarrow \dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}-1=\dfrac{{{t}^{6}}}{16+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}}.....(13)\]
And again rearranging in equation (13) by taking LCM we get,
\[\begin{align}
  & \Rightarrow \dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}=\dfrac{{{t}^{6}}}{16+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}}+1 \\
 & \Rightarrow \dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}}{{{y}^{2}}}=\dfrac{{{t}^{6}}+16+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}}{16+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}}.........(14) \\
\end{align}\]
Now cross multiplying the terms in equation (14) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}+16}{{{t}^{6}}+9{{t}^{4}}+24{{t}^{2}}+16}(1-{{x}^{2}}).........(15)\]
Now we know \[t=\left( \sqrt{\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}}} \right)\]. So squaring both sides we get \[{{t}^{2}}=\dfrac{3-4{{x}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}}=\dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-4\] and then after rearranging it we get \[{{t}^{2}}+4=\dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}\]and then converting the terms in equation (15) in \[{{t}^{2}}+4\] form and then substituting it in equation (15) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{{{({{t}^{2}}+4)}^{2}}+8{{t}^{4}}+16{{t}^{2}}}{{{t}^{2}}({{t}^{4}}+8{{t}^{2}}+16)+({{t}^{4}}+8{{t}^{2}}+16)}(1-{{x}^{2}}).........(16)\]
Now simplifying equation (16) by rearranging the terms we get,
\[\begin{align}
  & \Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{{{({{t}^{2}}+4)}^{2}}+8{{t}^{4}}+16{{t}^{2}}}{({{t}^{2}}+1)({{t}^{4}}+8{{t}^{2}}+16)}(1-{{x}^{2}}) \\
 & \Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{{{({{t}^{2}}+4)}^{2}}+8{{t}^{2}}({{t}^{2}}+2)}{({{t}^{2}}+1){{({{t}^{2}}+4)}^{2}}}(1-{{x}^{2}})........(17) \\
\end{align}\]
Now substituting all the values of \[{{t}^{2}}\] in equation (17) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{{{\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}^{2}}+8\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-4 \right)\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-2 \right)}{\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-3 \right){{\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}^{2}}}(1-{{x}^{2}})........(18)\]
Now rearranging again in equation (18) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{\left( \dfrac{9}{{{x}^{4}}} \right)+8\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-4 \right)\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-2 \right)}{3\left( \dfrac{1-{{x}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)\left( \dfrac{9}{{{x}^{4}}} \right)}(1-{{x}^{2}})........(19)\]
Now cancelling all the similar terms and rearranging in equation (19) we get,
\[\Rightarrow {{y}^{2}}=\dfrac{{{x}^{6}}\left( \dfrac{9}{{{x}^{4}}} \right)+8{{x}^{6}}\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-4 \right)\left( \dfrac{3}{{{x}^{2}}}-2 \right)}{27}........(20)\]
Now cross multiplying in equation (20) we get,
\[\begin{align}
  & \Rightarrow 27{{y}^{2}}=9{{x}^{2}}+8{{x}^{6}}\left( \dfrac{9}{{{x}^{4}}}-\dfrac{6}{{{x}^{2}}}-\dfrac{12}{{{x}^{2}}}+8 \right) \\
 & \Rightarrow 27{{y}^{2}}=81{{x}^{2}}-144{{x}^{4}}+64{{x}^{6}}.......(21) \\
\end{align}\]
Now converting right hand side of equation (21) in terms of square we get,
\[\Rightarrow 27{{y}^{2}}={{x}^{2}}{{(9-8{{x}^{2}})}^{2}}\]
Hence rational integral in x and y is option (b).

Note: Here we have to remember the trigonometric formulas because these formulas are very important to solve these types of questions. We can commit a mistake in solving equation (3) and equation (6) in a hurry so we need to be careful with the steps.
