MCQ
$\cot^{-1}(1) + \cot^{-1} (\frac{1}{2}) + \cot^{-1}(\frac{1}{3}) =$
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $\frac{3 \pi}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \pi}{3}$
  • ✓
    $\pi$
✓

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\pi$
d
$\cot^{-1}(1) + \cot^{-1} (\frac{1}{2}) + \cot^{-1}(\frac{1}{3})$

$=\tan ^{-1}(1)+\tan ^{-1}(2)+\tan ^{-1}(3)$

$=\frac{\pi}{4}+\left[\frac{\pi}{2}-\cot ^{-1} 2\right]+\frac{\pi}{2}-\cot ^{-1} 3$

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

$=\frac{5 \pi}{4}-\left[\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)\right]$

$=\frac{5 \pi}{4}-\left[\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}}{1-\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}}\right)\right]$

$=\frac{5 \pi}{4}-\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\frac{5}{6}}{\frac{5}{6}}\right)$

$=\frac{5 \pi}{4}-\tan ^{-1}(1)$

$=\frac{5 \pi}{4}-\frac{\pi}{4}$

$=\pi$
