Inverse Trigonometric Function Exercise 3.6 Question 1 (i).

Answer:$\frac{5\pi }{6}$
Hints: The $\cot ^{-1}$ function is defined as a function whose domain is R and the principal value branch of the function $cot^{-1}$ is $\left ( 0,\pi \right )$
Thus,$cot^{-1}: R \rightarrow (0,\pi )$
Given:$cot^{-1}(\sqrt{-3})$
Solution:
Let$y= cot^{-1}(\sqrt{-3}) \; \; \; \; \; \; \cdot \cdot \cdot \left ( 1 \right )$
$cot\: y= -\sqrt{3}$
$cot\: y = - cot\frac{\pi }{6} \; \; \; \; \; \; [cot\:\frac{\pi }{6} =\sqrt{3} ]$
$cot\: y = cot (\pi - \frac{\pi }{6} ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; [ \because cot\left ( \pi - \theta \right ) = - cot\theta ]$
$cot\: y = cot\frac{5\pi }{6}$
$y = \frac{5\pi }{6}$$cot^{-1}(\sqrt{-3}) = \frac{5\pi }{6}$ (From equation 1)
$\because$ The principal value branch of the function $cot^{-1} is (0, \pi )$
$cot^{-1}(\sqrt{-3}) = \frac{5\pi }{6} \: \epsilon\: (0, \pi )$
Hence the principal value of $cot^{-1} (\sqrt{-3})$ is $\frac{5\pi }{6}$

Inverse Trigonometric Function Exercise 3.6 Question 1 (ii).

Answer:$\frac{\pi }{6}$
Hint: The $cot^{-1}$ function is defined as a function whose domain R and the principal value branch of the function $cot ^{-1}$ is $\left ( 0,\pi \right )$. Thus$cot^{-1}: R \rightarrow (0,\pi )$
Given: $cot^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$
Solution:
Let $y = cot^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot 1$
$cot\: y = \sqrt{3}$
$cot\: y = cot\frac{\pi }{6} \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; [cot\frac{\pi }{6}= \sqrt{3} ]$
$y = \frac{\pi }{6}$
$cot^{-1}\sqrt{3}= \frac{\pi }{6}$ (From equation 1)
$\because$ The principal value branch of the function$cot ^{-1}$ is$(0, \pi )$
$cot^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$$= \frac{\pi }{6} \: \epsilon \: (0, \pi )$
Hence the principal value of $cot^{-1} (\sqrt{3})$ is $\frac{\pi }{6}$

Inverse Trigonometric Function Exercise 3.6 Question 1 (iii).

Answer:$\frac{2\pi }{3}$
Hint: The $cot ^{-1}$ function is defined as a function whose domain R and the principal value branch of the function $cot ^{-1}$ is $(0, \pi )$. Thus $cot ^{-1}: R\rightarrow \left ( 0,\pi \right )$Given: $cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$
Solution:
Let $y = cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot 1$
$cot\: y = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$cot\: y = - cot\frac{\pi }{3} \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [cot\frac{\pi }{3}= \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ]$
$cot\: y = cot (\pi -\frac{\pi }{3} ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; [ \because cot\left ( \pi -\theta \right ) = - cot\theta ]$
$y = \frac{2\pi }{3}$
$cot^{-1}\left (\frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{2\pi }{3}$ (From equation 1)
$\because$ The principal value branch of the function $cot ^{-1}$ is $(0, \pi )$
$cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$$= \frac{2\pi }{3}\: \epsilon \: (0, \pi )$
Hence the principal value of $cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ is $\frac{2\pi }{3}$

Inverse Trigonometric Function Exercise 3.6 Question 1 (iv).

Answer:$\frac{3\pi }{4}$
Hint: The $\cot ^{-1}$ function is defined as a function whose domain R and the principal value branch of the function $\cot ^{-1}$ is $(0, \pi ).$ Thus $cot ^{-1}: R \rightarrow (0,\pi )$
First we will convert $tan\frac{3\pi }{4}$ into $\cot$
Given: $cot^{-1}\left ( \tan \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )$
Solution:
Let $y= cot^{-1}\left ( \tan \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot 1$
$cot\: y= \tan \frac{3\pi }{4}$
$cot\: y = cot (\frac{\pi }{2}- \frac{3\pi }{2} ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [ \because tan\theta = \cot \left ( \frac{\pi }{2}-\theta\right ) \right ]$
$cot\: y = cot ( \frac{-\pi }{4} )$
$cot\: y = - cot \left ( \frac{\pi }{4} \right ) \; \; \; \; [ \because cot\left ( -\theta \right ) = - cot\: \theta ]$
$cot\: y = cot \left ( \pi -\frac{\pi }{4} \right ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; [ cot\left ( \pi -\theta \right ) = - cot\: \theta ]$
$cot\: y = cot \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )$
$y = \frac{3\pi }{4}$
$cot^{-1}\left ( tan\frac{3\pi }{4}\right ) = \frac{3\pi }{4}$ (From equation 1)
$\because$ The principal value branch of the function $cot^{-1}$ is $(0, \pi )$
$cot^{-1}\left ( tan\frac{3\pi }{4} \right ) =\frac{3\pi }{4}\: \epsilon \: (0, \pi )$
Hence the principal value of $cot^{-1}\left ( tan\frac{3\pi }{4} \right )$ is $\frac{3\pi }{4}$

Inverse Trigonometric Function Exercise 3.6 Question 2.

Answer:$R - \left \{ n\pi , n \: \epsilon \: Z \right \}$
Hints: First we will write the domain of $\cot\: x$ and $\cot^{-1}\: x$ respectively. After that we will solve for common domain
Given: $f\! (x) = \cot \: x + \cot ^{-1} (x)$
Solution:
Let us first solve for $cot\: x$
$\because$ $\cot \: x$ is defined for $x \: \epsilon \: R - \left \{ n\pi, n \: \epsilon \: z \right \}$
$\because$ Domain of $\cot\: x = R - \left \{ n\pi, n \: \epsilon \: z \right \}$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot 1$
Let us solve for $\cot^{-1}\left ( x \right )$
$\because$$\cot^{-1}x$ is defined for $x \: \epsilon \: R$
$\because$ Domain of $\cot^{-1}(x) = R$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot 2$
Now to find the domain of $f\! (x)$ we take the intersection of both equations 1 and 2
(Domain of $\cot\: x$) $\cap$ (Domain of $\cot ^{-1}x$)
$= R - \left \{ n\pi, n \: \epsilon \: z \right \}$
Hence the domain of $f\! (x) = \cot\: x + \cot^{-1}x$ is $R - \left \{ n\pi, n \: \epsilon \: z \right \}$

The principal value branch of the function cosec -1 is $\left [ \frac{-\pi }{2} ,\frac{\pi }{2}\right ] - \left \{ 0 \right \}$
We will find all the principal values between these intervals
Given: $\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) - cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right ) + \sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$
Solution:
$\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) - cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right ) + \sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot (i)$
Let us first solve for $\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$
Let $x=\ cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot \left ( ii \right )$
$\cot\: x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\cot\: x = \cot\left (\frac{\pi }{3} \right ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [\cot\frac{\pi }{3}= \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ]$
$x = \frac{\pi }{3}$
$\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{\pi }{3}$ {from equation (ii)}
The principal value branch of $\cot^{-1} is\: (0, \pi )$
$\because$ $\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{\pi }{3} \: \epsilon\: (0, \pi )$
Therefore principal value of $\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ is $\frac{\pi }{3}$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (iii)$
Let us solve for $cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right )$
Let $y = cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (iv)$

$cosec\: y = - cosec\frac{\pi }{6} \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \;\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [ cosec\: \frac{\pi }{6}=2 \right ]$
$cosec\: y = cosec\left ( \frac{-\pi }{6} \right )$
$y = -\frac{\pi }{6}$
$cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right ) = -\frac{\pi }{6}$ {from equation (iv)}
The principal value branch of $cosec ^{-1} \: is \: [\frac{-\pi }{2},\frac{\pi }{2} ] -\left \{ 0 \right \}$
$\because cosec^{-1}\left ( -2 \right ) = -\frac{\pi }{6} \: \epsilon \: \left [ \frac{-\pi }{2}, \frac{\pi }{2} \right ]-\left \{ 0 \right \}$
Therefore principal value of $cosec^{-1}\left (-2 \right ) is\: \frac{-\pi }{6}$ … (v)
Let us solve for $\sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$
Let $z = \sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \cdot \cdot \cdot (vi)$

The principal value branch of the function$\sec ^{-1}$ is$[0, \pi ] - \left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \}$
$\because \sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )= \frac{\pi }{6} \: \epsilon\: [0, \pi ] -\left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \}$

Let us first solve for $\sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}2{}$
Let $x= \sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}2{}$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (ii)$
$\sin \: x = \frac{\sqrt{3}}2{}$
$\sin\: x = \sin \frac{\pi }{3}$
$x = \frac{\pi }{3}$
$\sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{\pi }{3}$ [from equation (ii)]
The principal value branch of $\sin^{-1}$ is $\left [ \frac{-\pi }{2},\frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
$\because \sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}= \frac{\pi }{3} \: \epsilon \: \left [ \frac{-\pi }{2},\frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
$\because$ Principal value of $\sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ is $\frac{\pi }{3}$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (iii)$
Now from equation (i)
$cot^{-1}\left \{ 2 \cos\left ( \sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right ) \right \}$
$= \cot^{-1}\left \{ 2 \cos\left (\frac{\pi }{3} \right ) \right \}$ [from equation (iii)]

Let $y=\ cot^{-1}\left ( 1 \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (v)$
$\cot y = 1$
$\cot\: y = \cot \frac{\pi }{4}$
$y = \frac{\pi }{4}$ [from v]

Let $x = cosec^{-1} \left ( \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (ii)$
$cosec\: x = -\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$
$cosec\: x = - \, cosec\: \frac{\pi }{3}$
$cosec\: x =cosec \left ( \frac{-\pi }{3} \right )$
$x=-\frac{\pi }{3}$
$cosec^{-1} \left ( \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )= -\frac{\pi }{3}$ [from equation (ii)]
The principal value branch of the function $\sec^{-1} is [0, \pi ] -\left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \}$
$\because \sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )= \frac{-\pi }{3} \: \epsilon \: [0, \pi ] -\left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \}$
Therefore the principal value of $\sec^{-1}\left ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$ is $\frac{-\pi }{3}$ $\cdot \cdot \cdot (iii)$
Now let us solve for $\cot^{-1} (- 1)$
Let$y = \cot^{-1}\left ( -1 \right ) \; \; \; \; \; \cdot \cdot \cdot (iv)$
$\cot\: y = - 1 \left [\ cot\left ( \frac{\pi }{4} \right ) = 1 \right ]$

$y = \frac{3\pi }{4}$
$\cot^{-1}\left ( -1 \right ) = \frac{3\pi }{4}$ [from equation (iv) ]
The principal value branch of the $\cot^{-1}$ is $( 0, \pi )$

$\begin{aligned} &\tan x=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \\ &\tan x=-\tan \frac{\pi}{6} \\ &\tan x=\tan \left(\frac{-\pi}{6}\right) \\ &x=\frac{-\pi}{6} \end{aligned}$
$\tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{-\pi }{6}$ [from equation]
The range of principal value branch of $\tan^{-1}$ is $\left [ \frac{-\pi }{2},\frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
$\because \tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )= \frac{-\pi }{6} \: \epsilon \: \left [ \frac{-\pi }{2},\frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
Hence principal value of $\tan^{-1} \left ( \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) =\frac{-\pi }{6} \cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot (iii)$
Now let us solve for $\tan^{-1} \left (- \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right )$
Let $y = \cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) \cdot \cdot \cdot (iv)$

$\cot\: x= \cot \left ( \frac{\pi }{3} \right ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [ \cot \frac{\pi }{3}= \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ]$
$x =\frac{\pi }{3}$
$\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{\pi }{3}$ {from equation (iv)}
The principal value branch of $\cot^{-1}$ is $(0, \pi )$
$\because \cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) = \frac{\pi }{3} \: \epsilon \: (0, \pi )$
Therefore principal value of $\cot^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right ) \: is\: \frac{\pi }{3}$
Now let us solve for $\tan^{-1}\left ( \sin\left ( \frac{-\pi }{2} \right )\right )$

$\tan\: z = - sin\left ( \frac{\pi }{2} \right ) \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \left [ \sin \left ( \frac{-\pi }{2} \right )= 1 \right ]$
$\begin{aligned} &\begin{array}{l} \tan z= -1 \\ \tan z=-\tan \frac{\pi}{4} \end{array} \\ &\tan z=\tan \frac{-\pi}{4} \\ &z=\frac{-\pi}{4} \end{aligned}$
$\tan^{-1}\left ( \sin\left ( \frac{-\pi }{2} \right ) \right )= \frac{-\pi }{4}$
The range of principal value branch of $\tan^{-1}\: is\: \left [ \frac{-\pi }{2}, \frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
$\because \tan^{-1}\left ( \sin \left ( \frac{-\pi }{2} \right ) \right ) = \frac{-\pi }{4} \: \epsilon \: \left [ \frac{-\pi }{2}, \frac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
