Question

Write the value of $\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}-\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{a}-\text{b}}{\text{a}+\text{b}}\Big).$

Answer

$\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}-\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{a}-\text{b}}{\text{a}+\text{b}}\Big)$
$=\tan^{-1}\begin{bmatrix}\frac{\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}-\frac{\text{a}-\text{b}}{\text{a}+\text{b}}}{1+\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\Big)-\Big(\frac{\text{a}-\text{b}}{\text{a}+\text{b}}\Big)}\end{bmatrix}$
$\Big\{\text{Since},\tan^{-1}\text{x}-\tan^{-1}\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{x}-\text{y}}{1+\text{xy}}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\tan^{-1}\begin{bmatrix}\frac{\frac{\text{a}^2+\text{ab}-\text{ab}+\text{b}^2}{\text{b}(\text{a}+\text{b})}}{\frac{\text{ba}+\text{b}^2+\text{a}^2-\text{ab}}{{\text{b}(\text{a}+\text{b})}}}\end{bmatrix}$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big[\frac{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}\Big]$
$=\tan^{-1}(1)$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}$
Hence,
$\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}-\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{a}-\text{b}}{\text{a}+\text{b}}\Big)=\frac{\pi}{4}$

Of the students in a college, it is known that 60% reside in hostel and 40% are day scholars (not residing in hostel). Previous year results report that 30% of all students who reside in hostel attain A grade and 20% of day scholars attain A grade in their annual examination. At the end of the year, one student is chosen at random from the college and he has an A grade, what is the probability that the student is a hostlier?
