MCQ
Find the principal value of $cosec ^{-1}(2)$
  • $\frac{\pi}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{3}$
  • D
    $0$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{\pi}{6}$
a
Let $cosec ^{-1}(2)=y$

Then, $cosec y=2=cosec \left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right)$

We know that the range of the principal value branch of $cosec ^{-1}$ is $\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right]-\{0\}$.

Therefore, the principal value of $cosec ^{-1}(2)$ is $\frac{\pi}{6}$
