MCQ
Choose the correct answer from the given four options. The value of the expression $2\sec^{-1}2+\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{6}$
  • $\frac{5\pi}{6}$
  • C
    $\frac{7\pi}{6}$
  • D
    $1$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{5\pi}{6}$
We have, $2\sec^{-1}2+\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
$=2\sec^{-1}\sec\frac{\pi}{3}+\sin^{-1}\sin\frac{\pi}{6}$
$=2\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{6}$
$[\because \sec^{-1}(\sec\text{x})=\text{x}  $ and $ \sin^{-1}(\sin\text{x})=\text{x}]$
$=\frac{4\pi+\pi}{6}$
$=\frac{5\pi}{6}$
