NCERT Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 2 Inverse Trigonometric Functions: Exercise 2.2

Question:1 Prove the following: 3\sin^{-1}x = \sin^{-1}(3x - 4x^3),\;\;x\in\left[-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2} \right ]

Answer:

Given to prove: 3\sin^{-1}x = \sin^{-1}(3x - 4x^3)

where, x\:\epsilon \left[-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2} \right ] .

Take \theta= \sin ^{-1}x or x = \sin \theta

Take R.H.S value

\sin^{-1}(3x - 4x^3)

= \sin^{-1}(3\sin \theta - 4\sin^3 \theta)

= \sin^{-1}(\sin 3\theta)

= 3\theta

= 3\sin^{-1}x = L.H.S

Question:2 Prove the following: 3\cos^{-1} x = \cos^{-1}(4x^3 - 3x), \;\;x\in\left[\frac{1}{2},1 \right ]

Answer:

Given to prove 3\cos^{-1} x = \cos^{-1}(4x^3 - 3x), \;\;x\in\left[\frac{1}{2},1 \right ] .

Take \cos^{-1}x = \theta or \cos \theta = x ;

Then we have;

R.H.S.

\cos^{-1}(4x^3 - 3x)

= \cos^{-1}(4\cos^3 \theta - 3\cos\theta) \left [ \because 4\cos^3 \theta - 3\cos\theta = \cos3 \theta \right ]

= \cos^{-1}(\cos3\theta)

= 3\theta

= 3\cos^{-1}x = L.H.S

Hence Proved.

Question:3 Prove the following: \tan^{-1}\frac{2}{11} + \tan^{-1}\frac{7}{24} = \tan^{-1}\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

Given to prove \tan^{-1}\frac{2}{11} + \tan^{-1}\frac{7}{24} = \tan^{-1}\frac{1}{2}

We have L.H.S

\tan^{-1}\frac{2}{11} + \tan^{-1}\frac{7}{24}

=\tan^{-1}\frac{\frac{2}{11} + \frac{7}{24} }{1 - \left ( \frac{2}{11}\times\frac{7}{24} \right ) } \left [ \because \tan^{-1}x + \tan^{-1}y = \tan^{-1} \frac{x +y}{1 - xy} \right ]

=\tan^{-1}\frac{11\times 24 }{\frac{11\times24 -14}{11\times 24} }

=\tan^{-1}\frac{48 + 77}{264 -14}

=\tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{125}{250}\right ) = \tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )

= R.H.S

Hence proved.

Question:4 Prove the following: 2\tan^{-1} \frac{1}{2} + \tan^{-1}\frac{1}{7} = \tan^{-1}\frac{31}{17}

Answer:

Given to prove 2\tan^{-1} \frac{1}{2} + \tan^{-1}\frac{1}{7} = \tan^{-1}\frac{31}{17}

Then taking L.H.S.

We have 2\tan^{-1} \frac{1}{2} + \tan^{-1}\frac{1}{7}

=\tan^{-1} \frac{2.\frac{1}{2}}{1 - \left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )^2} + \tan^{-1} \frac{1}{7} \because 2\tan^{-1} x = \tan^{-1} \frac{2x}{1- x^2}

=\tan^{-1} \frac{1}{(\frac{3}{4})} + \tan^{-1} \frac{1}{7}

=\tan^{-1} \frac{4}{3} + \tan^{-1} \frac{1}{7}

=\tan^{-1} \frac{\frac{4}{3} + \frac{1}{7}}{1 - \frac{4}{3}.\frac{1}{7}} \left [ \because \tan^{-1}x + \tan^{-1} y = \tan^{-1} \frac{x +y}{1- xy}\right ]

=\tan^{-1} \left ( \frac{\frac{28+3}{21}}{\frac{21-4}{21}} \right )

=\tan^{-1} \frac{31}{17}

= R.H.S.

Hence proved.

Question:5 Write the following functions in the simplest form: \tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{1 + x^2}- 1}{x},\;\;x\neq 0

Answer:

We have \tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{1 + x^2}- 1}{x}

Take

\therefore \tan^{-1} \frac {\sqrt{1+x^2} - 1}{x} = \tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{1+\tan^2 \Theta - 1}}{\tan \Theta}

=\tan^{-1}(\frac{sec \Theta-1}{tan \Theta}) = \tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{1-cos \Theta}{sin \Theta} \right )

=\tan^{-1}\left ( \frac {2sin^2\left ( \frac{\Theta}{2} \right )}{2sin\frac{\Theta}{2}cos\frac{\Theta}{2}} \right )

=\tan^{-1}\left ( \tan\frac{\Theta}{2} \right ) = \frac{\Theta}{2} =\frac{1}{2}\tan^{-1}x

=\frac{1}{2}\tan^{-1}x is the simplified form.

Question:6 Write the following functions in the simplest form : \tan^{-1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2 -1}},\;\; |x| > 1

Answer:

Given that \tan^{-1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2 -1}},\;\; |x| > 1

Take x =cosec\ \Theta or \Theta = cosec ^{-1}x

\therefore tan^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2-1}}

=tan^{-1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{cosec^2 \Theta -1}}

=tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\cot \Theta})

=tan^{-1}(\tan \Theta) = \Theta

= cosec^{-1}x

=\frac{\pi}{2}- \sec^{-1}x [\because cosec^{-1}x + \sec^{-1}x = \frac{\pi}{2}]

Question:7 Write the following functions in the simplest form: \tan^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos x}{1 + \cos x}} \right ),\;\; 0< x < \pi

Answer:

Given that \tan^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos x}{1 + \cos x}} \right ),\;\; 0< x < \pi

We have in inside the root the term : \frac{1-\cos x}{1 + \cos x}

Put 1-\cos x = 2\sin^2\frac{x}{2} and 1+\cos x = 2\cos^2\frac{x}{2} ,

Then we have,

=\tan^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{2\sin^2\frac{x}{2}}{2\cos^2\frac{x}{2}}} \right )

=\tan^{-1}\left( \frac{\sin \frac{x}{2}}{\cos\frac{x}{2}} \right )

=\tan^{-1}(\tan\frac{x}{2}) = \frac{x}{2}

Hence the simplest form is \frac{x}{2}

Question:8 Write the following functions in the simplest form: \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos x -\sin x }{\cos x + \sin x} \right ),\;\; \frac{-\pi}{4} < x < \frac{3\pi}{4}

Answer:

Given \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos x -\sin x }{\cos x + \sin x} \right ) where x\:\epsilon\:( \frac{-\pi}{4} < x < \frac{3\pi}{4})

So,

=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos x -\sin x }{\cos x + \sin x} \right )

Taking \cos x common from numerator and denominator.

We get:

=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1 -(\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}) }{1+(\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}) } \right )

=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1 - \tan x }{1+\tan x } \right )

= \tan^{-1}(1) - \tan^{-1}(\tan x) as, \left [ \because \tan^{-1}x - \tan^{-1}y = \frac{x - y}{1 + xy} \right ]

= \frac{\pi}{4} - x is the simplest form.

Question:9 Write the following functions in the simplest form: \tan^{-1} \frac{x}{\sqrt{a^2 - x^2}}, \;\; |x| < a

Answer:

Given that \tan^{-1} \frac{x}{\sqrt{a^2 - x^2}}, \;\; |x| < a

Take x = a\sin \theta or

\theta = \sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{x}{a} \right ) and putting it in the equation above;

\tan^{-1} \frac{a\sin \theta}{\sqrt{a^2 - (a\sin \theta)^2}}

=\tan^{-1} \frac{a\sin \theta}{a\sqrt{1 - \sin^2 \theta}}

=\tan^{-1} \left ( \frac{\sin \theta}{\sqrt{\cos^2 \theta}} \right ) = \tan^{-1} \left ( \frac{\sin \theta}{{\cos \theta}} \right )

=\tan^{-1}\left ( \tan \theta \right )

=\theta = \sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{x}{a} \right ) is the simplest form.

Question:10 Write the following functions in the simplest form: \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3a^2x -x^3}{a^3 - 3ax^2} \right ),\;\;a>0\;\;;\;\;\frac{-a}{\sqrt3} < x < \frac{a}{\sqrt3}

Answer:

Given \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3a^2x -x^3}{a^3 - 3ax^2} \right )

Here we can take x = a\tan \theta \Rightarrow \frac{x}{a} = \tan \theta

So, \theta = \tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{x}{a} \right )

\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3a^2x -x^3}{a^3 - 3ax^2} \right ) will become;

=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3a^2a\tan \theta -(a\tan \theta)^3}{a^3 - 3a(a\tan \theta)^2} \right ) = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3a^3\tan \theta -a^3\tan ^3 \theta}{a^3 - 3a^3\tan ^2 \theta} \right )

and as \left [ \because \left(\frac{3\tan \theta -\tan ^3 \theta}{ 1- 3\tan ^2 \theta} \right) =\tan 3\theta \right ] ;

=3 \theta

=3 \tan^{-1}(\frac{x}{a})

hence the simplest form is 3 \tan^{-1}(\frac{x}{a}) .

Question:11 Find the values of each of the following: \tan^{-1}\left[2\cos\left(2\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ]

Answer:

Given equation:

\tan^{-1}\left[2\cos\left(2\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ]

So, solving the inner bracket first, we take the value of \sin x^{-1} \frac{1}{2} = x.

Then we have,

\sin x = \frac{1}{2} = \sin \left ( \frac{\pi}{6} \right )

Therefore, we can write \sin^{-1} \frac{1}{2} = \frac{\pi}{6} .

\tan^{-1}\left[2\cos\left(2\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ] = \tan^{-1}\left[2\cos\left(2\times\frac{\pi}{6} \right ) \right ]

= \tan^{-1}\left[2\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3} \right ) \right ] = \tan^{-1}\left[2\times\left(\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ] = \tan^{-1}1 = \frac{\pi}{4} .

Question:12 Find the values of each of the following: \cot(\tan^{-1}a + \cot^{-1}a)

Answer:

We have to find the value of \cot(\tan^{-1}a + \cot^{-1}a)

As we know \left [\because \tan^{-1}x + \cot^{-1} x = \frac{\pi}{2} \right ] so,

Equation reduces to \cot(\frac{\pi}{2}) = 0 .

Question:13 Find the values of each of the following: \tan \frac{1}{2}\left[\sin^{-1}\frac{2x}{1+x^2} + cos^{-1}\frac{1-y^2}{1+y^2} \right ],\;\;|x|<1,\;y>0 and xy<1

Answer:

Taking the value x = \tan \Theta or \tan^{-1}x = \Theta and y = \tan \Theta or \tan^{-1} y = \Theta then we have,

= \tan \frac{1}{2}\left[\sin^{-1}\frac{2\tan \Theta}{1+(\tan \Theta)^2} + cos^{-1}\frac{1-\tan^2 \Theta}{1+(\tan \Theta)^2} \right ] ,

= \tan \frac{1}{2}\left[\sin^{-1}(\sin2\Theta) + cos^{-1} (\cos 2\Theta) \right ]

\because \left[\cos^{-1}(\frac{1-\tan^2 \Theta}{1+ \tan^2\Theta}) = \cos^{-1} (\cos2 \Theta) , \right ]

\because \left[\sin^{-1}(\frac{2\tan\Theta}{1+ \tan^2\Theta}) = \sin^{-1} (\sin2 \Theta) \right ]

Then,

=\tan \frac{1}{2}\left[2\tan^{-1}x + 2\tan^{-1}y \right ] \because \left[\tan^{-1}x + \tan^{-1}y = \tan^{-1} \frac{x+y}{1- xy} \right]

=\tan \left [ \tan^{-1}\frac{x+y}{1-xy} \right ]

=\frac{x+y}{1-xy} Ans.

Question:14 If \sin\left(\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{5} + \cos ^{-1}x \right ) =1 , then find the value of x .

Answer:

As we know the identity;

sin^{-1} x + cos^{-1} x = \frac {\pi}{2},\ x\ \epsilon\ [-1,1] . it will just hit you by practice to apply this.

So, \sin\left(\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{5} + \cos ^{-1}x \right ) =1 or \sin^{-1}\frac{1}{5} + \cos ^{-1}x =\sin^{-1}(1) ,

we can then write \cos^{-1}x = \frac{\pi}{2} - \sin^{-1}x ,

putting in above equation we get;

\sin^{-1}\frac{1}{5} + \frac{\pi}{2} - \sin^{-1}x =\frac{\pi}{2} \because \left [ \sin^{-1}(1)=\frac{\pi}{2} \right ]

= \sin^{-1}x = \sin^{-1} \frac{1}{5}

Ans. x = \frac{1}{5}

Question:15 If \tan^{-1}\frac{x-1}{x-2} + \tan^{-1}\frac{x+1}{x+2} =\frac{\pi}{4} , then find the value of x .

Answer:

Using the identity \tan^{-1}x+\tan^{-1} y = \tan^{-1}{\frac{x+y}{1-xy}} ,

We can find the value of x;

So, \tan^{-1}\frac{x-1}{x-2} + \tan^{-1}\frac{x+1}{x+2} =\frac{\pi}{4}

on applying,

= \tan^{-1}{\frac{\frac{x-1}{x-2}+\frac{x+1}{x+2}}{1- \left ( \frac{x-1}{x-2} \right )\left ( \frac{x+1}{x+2} \right )}}

=\tan^{-1}\frac{\frac{(x-1)(x+2)+(x-2)(x+1)}{x^2-4}}{1-\frac{x^2-1}{x^2-4}} = \tan^{-1} \left [ \frac{2x^2-4}{-3} \right ] = \frac{\pi}{4}

=\frac{2x^2-4}{-3} = \tan (\frac{\pi}{4})=1

= 2x^2=1 or x = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} ,

Hence, the possible values of x are \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} .

Question:16 Find the values of each of the expressions in Exercises 16 to 18. \sin^{-1}\left (\sin\frac{2\pi}{3} \right )

Answer:

Given \sin^{-1}\left (\sin\frac{2\pi}{3} \right ) ;

We know that \sin^{-1}(\sin x) = x

If the value of x belongs to \left [ \frac{-\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2} \right ] then we get the principal values of \sin^{-1}x .

Here, \frac{2\pi}{3} \notin \left [ \frac{-\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2} \right ]

We can write \sin^{-1}\left (\sin\frac{2\pi}{3} \right ) is as:

= \sin^{-1}\left [ \sin\left ( \pi-\frac{2\pi}{3} \right ) \right ]

= \sin^{-1}\left [ \sin \frac{\pi}{3} \right ] where \frac{\pi}{3} \epsilon \left [ \frac{-\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \right ]

\therefore \sin^{-1}\left (\sin\frac{2\pi}{3} \right )=\sin^{-1}\left [ \sin \frac{\pi}{3} \right ]=\frac{\pi}{3}

Question:17 Find the values of each of the expressions in Exercises 16 to 18. \tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right )

Answer:

As we know \tan^{-1}\left ( \tan x \right ) =x

If x \epsilon \left ( -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \right ). which is the principal value range of \tan^{-1}x .

So, as in \tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right ) ;

\frac{3\pi}{4}\notin \left ( -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \right )

Hence we can write \tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right ) as :

\tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right ) = \tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right) = \tan^{-1}\left [ \tan(\pi - \frac{\pi}{4}) \right ] = \tan^{-1}\left [ \tan (\frac{-\pi}{4}) \right ]

Where -\frac{\pi}{4} \epsilon \left ( -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \right )

and \therefore \tan^{-1}\left (\tan\frac{3\pi}{4} \right )=\tan^{-1}\left [ \tan (\frac{-\pi}{4}) \right ]=-\frac{\pi}{4}

Question:18 Find the values of each of the expressions in Exercises 16 to 18. \tan\left(\sin^{-1}\frac{3}{5}+\cot^{-1}\frac{3}{2} \right )

Answer:

Given that \tan\left(\sin^{-1}\frac{3}{5}+\cot^{-1}\frac{3}{2} \right )

we can take \sin^{-1}\frac{3}{5} = x ,

then \sin x = \frac{3}{5}

or \cos x = \sqrt{1-\sin^{2}x}= \frac{4}{5}

\Rightarrow \tan x = \frac{\frac{3}{5}}{\frac{4}{5}} = \frac{3}{4}

\Rightarrow \tan^{-1}\frac{3}{4}= x

We have similarly;

\cot^{-1} \frac{3}{2} = \tan^{-1} \frac{2}{3}

Therefore we can write \tan\left(\sin^{-1}\frac{3}{5}+\cot^{-1}\frac{3}{2} \right )

=\tan\left(\tan^{-1}\frac{3}{4}+\tan^{-1}\frac{2}{3} \right )

=\tan\left[\tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{\frac{3}{4}+\frac{2}{3}}{1- \frac{3}{4}.\frac{2}{3}} \right ) \right ] from As, \left [ \tan^{-1}x + \tan^{-1}y = \tan^{-1} \frac{x+y}{1- xy} \right ]

=\tan \left (\tan^{-1} \frac{9+8}{12-6} \right ) = \tan \left (\tan^{-1} \frac{17}{6} \right )= \frac{17}{6}

Question:19 \cos^{-1}\left(\cos\frac{7\pi}{6} \right ) is equal to

(A) \frac{7\pi}{6}

(B) \frac{5\pi}{6}

(C) \frac{\pi}{3}

(D) \frac{\pi}{6}

Answer:

As we know that \cos^{-1} (cos x ) = x if x\epsilon [0,\pi] and is principal value range of \cos^{-1}x .

In this case \cos^{-1}\left(\cos\frac{7\pi}{6} \right ) ,

\frac{7\pi}{6} \notin [0,\pi]

hence we have then,

\cos^{-1}\left(\cos\frac{7\pi}{6} \right ) = \cos^{-1} \left ( \cos \frac{-7\pi}{6} \right ) = \cos^{-1}\left [ \cos\left ( 2\pi - \frac{7\pi}{6} \right ) \right ]

\left [ \because \cos (2\pi + x) = \cos x \right ]

\therefore\ we\ have \cos^{-1}\left ( \cos \frac{7\pi}{6} \right ) = \cos^{-1}\left ( \cos \frac{5\pi}{6} \right ) = \frac{5\pi}{6}

Hence the correct answer is \frac{5\pi}{6} (B).

Question:20 \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3} -\sin^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ) is equal to

(A) \frac{1}{2}

(B)

(C) \frac{1}{4}

(D) 1

Answer:

Solving the inner bracket of \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3} -\sin^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ) ;

\left(\frac{\pi}{3} -\sin^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ) or

Take \sin^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2} \right ) = x then,

\sin x =-\frac{1}{2} and we know the range of principal value of \sin^{-1}x\ is\ \left [ -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2} \right ].

Therefore we have \sin^{-1}\left ( -\frac{1}{2} \right ) = -\frac{\pi}{6} .

Hence, \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3} -\sin^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2} \right ) \right ) = \sin \left ( \frac{\pi}{3}+ \frac{\pi}{6} \right )= \sin \left ( \frac{3\pi}{6} \right ) = \sin\left ( \frac{\pi}{2} \right ) = 1

Hence the correct answer is D.

Question:21 \tan^{-1}\sqrt3 - \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt3) is equal to

(A) \pi

(B) -\frac{\pi}{2}

(C) 0

(D) 2\sqrt3

Answer:

We have \tan^{-1}\sqrt3 - \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt3) ;

finding the value of \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt3) :

Assume \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt3) =y then,

\cot y = -\sqrt 3 and the range of the principal value of \cot^{-1} is (0,\pi) .

Hence, principal value is \frac{5\pi}{6}

Therefore \cot^{-1} (-\sqrt3) = \frac {5\pi}{6}

and \tan^{-1} \sqrt3 = \frac{\pi}{3}

so, we have now,

\tan^{-1}\sqrt3 - \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt3)=\frac{\pi}{3} - \frac{5\pi}{6}

= \frac{2\pi - 5\pi}{6} = \frac{-3\pi}{6}

or, = \frac{ -\pi}{2}

Hence the answer is option (B).

You can go with last 5-10 years of PYQs so and after going through all the questions you will have a clear idea about the type and level of questions that are being asked and it will help you to boost your class 12th board preparation.

You can get the Previous Year Questions (PYQs) on the official website of the respective board.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello student,

If you are planning to appear again for class 12th board exam with PCMB as a private candidate here is the right information you need:

  • No school admission needed! Register directly with CBSE. (But if you want to attend the school then you can take admission in any private school of your choice but it will be waste of money)
  • You have to appear for the 2025 12th board exams.
  • Registration for class 12th board exam starts around September 2024 (check CBSE website for exact dates).
  • Aim to register before late October to avoid extra fees.
  • Schools might not offer classes for private students, so focus on self-study or coaching.

Remember , these are tentative dates based on last year. Keep an eye on the CBSE website ( https://www.cbse.gov.in/ ) for the accurate and official announcement.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to help you.

Good luck with your studies!

Hello Aspirant , Hope your doing great . As per your query , your eligible for JEE mains in the year of 2025 , Every candidate can appear for the JEE Main exam 6 times over three consecutive years . The JEE Main exam is held two times every year, in January and April.

Hi there,

Hope you are doing fine

Yes you are certainly eligible for giving the jee exam in the year 2025. You must pass the maths exam with at least 75% criteria as required by jee and provide the marksheet and the passing certificate while registering for the exam.


Pursuing maths as an additional subject while taking biology as your main subject does not offer any hindrance in you appearing for the jee examination. It is indeed an privilege to pursue both maths and biology as the subjects and prepare for the same.

There will be no issue in filling the form while registering for the exam as it will only require your basic details and marksheet which you can provide by attaching the marksheet of maths also. Also, a detailed roadmap is also available on the official websites on how to fill the registration form. So you can fill the form easily.


Hope this resolves your query.
