Question

For the principal values, evaluate the following:
$\sec^{-1}\big(\sqrt2\big)+2\text{cosec}^{-1}\big(-\sqrt2\big)$

✓

Answer

$\sec^{-1}\big(\sqrt2\big)+2\text{cosec}^{-1}\big(-\sqrt2\big)$
$\sec^{-1}\Big(\sec\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)+2\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big[\text{cosec}\Big(-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)\Big]$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}-2\times\frac{\pi}{4}$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\pi}{2}$
$=-\frac{\pi}{4}$
