Question
Evaluate the following:
$\cot^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt3}-\text{cosec}^{-1}(-2)+\sec^{-1}\Big(\frac{2}{\sqrt3}\Big)$

Answer

$\cot^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt3}-\text{cosec}^{-1}(-2)+\sec^{-1}\Big(\frac{2}{\sqrt3}\Big)$$=\frac{\pi}{6}-\Big(-\frac{\pi}{6}\Big)+\frac{\pi}{3}$
$=\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{3}$
$=\frac{4\pi}{6}$
$=\frac{2\pi}{3}$
