Question 512 Marks
If $\cot\Big(\cos^{-1}\frac{3}{5}+\sin^{-1}\text{x}\Big)=0,$ find the values of x.
Answer
$\cot(\text{z})=0$ means $\text{z}=\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{3\pi}{2},\frac{5\pi}{2}.....$
$\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{3}{5}\Big)+\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\text{n}\pi+\frac{\pi}{2}$
$\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\text{n}\pi+\frac{\pi}{2}-\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{3}{5}\Big)$
$\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\text{n}\pi+\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{3}{5}\Big)$
$\text{x}=\sin\Big(\text{n}\pi+\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{3}{5}\Big)\Big)$
$=(-1)^{\text{n}}\sin\Big(\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{3}{5}\Big)\Big)$
$\text{x}=(-1)^{\text{n}}\frac{3}{5}$

Question 532 Marks
Find the set values of $\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\Big)$
Answer
$\text{cosec}^{-1}\text{x}$ represents an angle in $\Big[-\frac{\pi}{2},0\Big)\cup\Big(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\Big]$whose cosecant is x.

Domain of $\text{cosec}^{-1}\text{x}$ is $(-\infty,-1]\cup[1,\infty)$

$\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\notin(-\infty,-1]\cup[1,\infty)$

Hence, $\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\Big)$ does not exist or its $\phi.$

Question 552 Marks
Write the value of $\sin^{-1}(\sin1550^\circ).$
Answer
We know that $\sin^{-1}(\sin\text{x})=\text{x}.$
Now,
$\sin^{-1}(\sin1550^\circ)=\sin^{-1}\{\sin(1620^\circ-1550^\circ)\}$

Question 562 Marks
Find the domain of $\text{f(x)}=\cos^{-1}\text{x}=\cos\text{x}$
Answer
For $\cos^{-1}\text{x} $ to be defined.

$-1\leq\text{x}\leq1$

Now, $\cos\text{x}$ is defined for all real values.

So, domain of $\cos\text{x}$ is R.

Domain of f(x) is $\text{R}\cap[-1,1]=[-1,1].$

Question 572 Marks
If $\cos^{-1}\text{x}+\cos^{-1}\text{y}=\frac{\pi}{4},$ find the value of $\sin^{-1}\text{x}+\sin^{-1}\text{y}$
Answer

Question 582 Marks
Find the domain of the following functions:
$\text{f(x)}=\sin^{-1}\text{x}+\sin\text{x}$
Answer
Let f(x) = g(x) + h(x), where
Therefore, the domain of f(x) is given by the intersection of the domain of g(x) and h(x)
The domain of g(x) is [-1, 1]
The domain of h(x) is $(-\infty,\infty)$
Therefore, the intersection of g(x) and h(x) is [-1, 1]

Question 672 Marks
Find the principal value of the following:
$\cos^{-1}\Big(\sin\frac{4\pi}{3}\Big)$
Answer
Let $\cos^{-1}\Big(\sin\frac{4\pi}{3}\Big)=\text{y}$

Then,

$\cos\text{y}=\sin\frac{4\pi}{3}$

We know that the range of the principal value branch is $[0,\pi].$

Thus,

$\cos\text{y}=\sin\frac{4\pi}{3}$

$=-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}=\cos\Big(\frac{5\pi}{6}\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{5\pi}{6}\in[0,\pi]$

$=\text{cosec}\Big(\text{cosec}^{-1}\frac{5}{4}\Big)$ $\Big[\therefore\ \cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{p}}{\text{h}}\Big)=\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{h}}{\text{p}}\Big)\Big]$
$=\frac{5}{4}$

Question 932 Marks
Write the value of $\cos^{-1}(\cos6).$
Answer
We know that $\cos^{-1}(\cos\text{x})=\text{x}$
Now,
$\cos^{-1}(\cos6)=\cos^{-1}\{\cos(2\pi-6)\}$
$=2\pi-6$

Question 942 Marks
Solve:
$4\sin^{-1}\text{x}={\pi}-\cos^{-1}\text{x}$
Answer
$4\sin^{-1}\text{x}={\pi}-\cos^{-1}\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow4\sin^{-1}\text{x}={\pi}-\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}-\sin^{-1}\text{x}\Big)$
$\Big[\because\ \cos^{-1}\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}-\sin^{-1}\text{x}\Big]$
$\Rightarrow4\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}+\sin^{-1}\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow3\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\sin\frac{\pi}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Question 952 Marks
Evaluate:
$\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
Answer
$\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(\pi-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=-\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=-\tan\begin{Bmatrix}\tan^{-1}\begin{bmatrix}\frac{\sqrt{1-\Big(\frac{7}{25}\Big)^3}}{\frac{7}{25}}\end{bmatrix}\end{Bmatrix}$
$=-\tan\Big\{\tan\frac{24}{7}\Big\}$
$=-\frac{24}{7}$

Question 962 Marks
Show that $\sin^{-1}\Big(2\text{x}\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}\Big)=2\sin^{-1}\text{x}.$
Answer
We have

$\text{L.H.S}=\sin^{-1}\Big(2\text{x}\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}\Big)$

Putting $\text{x}=\sin\text{a},$ we get

$=\sin^{-1}\Big(2\sin\text{a}\sqrt{1-\sin^2\text{a}}\Big)$

$=\sin^{-1}(2\sin\text{a}\cos\text{a})$

$=\sin^{-1}(\sin2\text{a})$

$=2\text{a}$

$=2\sin^{-1}\text{a}$ $(\because\ \text{x}=\sin\text{a})$

Question 972 Marks
Evaluate the following:
$\cos^{-1}\Big\{\cos\Big(\frac{4\pi}{3}\Big)\Big\}$
Answer
We know that,
$\cos^{-1}\big(\cos\theta\big)=\begin{cases}-\theta,&\text{if }\theta\in[-\pi,0]\\\theta,&\text{if }\theta\in[0,\pi]\\2\pi-\theta,&\text{if }\theta\in[\pi,2\pi]\\-2\pi+\theta,&\text{if }\theta\in[2\pi,3\pi]\end{cases}$
We have
$\cos^{-1}\Big\{\cos\Big(\frac{4\pi}{3}\Big)\Big\}=\cos^{-1}\Big\{\cos\Big(2\pi-\frac{2\pi}{3}\Big)\Big\}$
$\cos^{-1}\Big\{\cos\Big(\frac{2\pi}{3}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\frac{2\pi}{4}$

Question 982 Marks
Find the domain of $\text{f(x)}=\cot\text{x}+\cot^{-1}\text{x}$
Answer
Domain of $\cot\text{x}$ is $(0,\pi)$
Domain of $\cot^{-1}\text{x}$ is R.
So domain of $\cot\text{x}+\cot^{-1}\text{x}$ is R.

Question 992 Marks
For the principal values, evaluate the following:
$\tan^{-1}\Big\{2\sin\Big(4\cos^{-1}\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\Big)\Big\}$
Answer
$\tan^{-1}\Big\{2\sin\Big(4\cos^{-1}\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big\{2\sin\Big[4\cos^{-1}\Big(\cos\frac{\pi}{6}\Big)\Big]$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big\{2\sin\Big[4\times\frac{\pi}{6}\Big]\Big\}$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big(2\sin\frac{2\pi}{3}\Big)$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big[2\times\Big(\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$=\tan^{-1}\big(\sqrt3\big)$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big[\tan\Big(\frac{\pi}{3}\Big)\Big]$
$=\frac{\pi}{3}$

Question 1002 Marks
Evaluate:
$\text{cosec}\Big\{\cot^{-1}\Big(-\frac{12}{5}\Big)\Big\}$
Answer
$\text{cosec}\Big\{\cot^{-1}\Big(-\frac{12}{5}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\text{cosec}\Big\{-\cot^{-1}\Big(\frac{12}{5}\Big)\Big\}$ $\big[\because\ \cot^{-1}(\text{x})=-\cot^{-1}(\text{x})\big]$
$=\text{cosec}\Big\{-\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{13}{12}\Big)\Big\}$
$\Big[\therefore\ \cot^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{b}}{\text{p}}\Big)=\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{h}}{\text{p}}\Big)\Big]$
$=\text{cosec}\Big\{\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{13}{12}\Big)\Big\}$ $\big[\because\ \text{cosec}(-\text{x})=-\text{cosec}(\text{x})\big]$
$=-\frac{13}{12}$
