  • A
    $\frac{\pi }{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi }{3}$
  • $\frac{\pi }{4}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{\pi }{4}$
c
(c) $4 \, {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{5} - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{70}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{99}}$

$ = 2\, {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{\frac{2}{5}}}{{1 - \frac{1}{{25}}}}} \right] - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{70}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{99}}$

$ = 2\, {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{5}{{12}}} \right) - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{70}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{99}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{\frac{5}{6}}}{{1 - \frac{{25}}{{144}}}}} \right] - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{70}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{99}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{120}}{{119}}} \right) - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{70}} + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{99}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{120}}{{119}}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{\frac{1}{{99}} - \frac{1}{{70}}}}{{1 + \frac{1}{{99}}.\frac{1}{{70}}}}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{120}}{{119}}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{ - 29}}{{6931}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{{120}}{{119}} - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{{29}}{{6931}} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{{120}}{{119}} - {\tan ^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{{239}}$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{\frac{{120}}{{119}} - \frac{1}{{239}}}}{{1 + \frac{{120}}{{119}} \times \frac{1}{{239}}}}} \right] $

$= {\tan ^{ - 1}}(1) = \frac{\pi }{4}$.
