Question
Evaluate:
$\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$

Answer

$\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(\pi-\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=-\tan\Big\{\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{7}{25}\Big)\Big\}$
$=-\tan\begin{Bmatrix}\tan^{-1}\begin{bmatrix}\frac{\sqrt{1-\Big(\frac{7}{25}\Big)^3}}{\frac{7}{25}}\end{bmatrix}\end{Bmatrix}$
$=-\tan\Big\{\tan\frac{24}{7}\Big\}$
$=-\frac{24}{7}$
