MCQ
$\cot ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{x}$ equal to :
  • A
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
  • $\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
  • C
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
(B)
$\cot ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{x}$
taking $x=\sin \theta$
$\Rightarrow \quad \cot ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{1-\sin ^2 \theta}}{\sin \theta}=\cot ^{-1} \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \cot ^{-1}(\cot \theta)=\theta=\sin ^{-1} x=\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
Hence correct option is (B).
