MCQ
Identify the pair $(s)$ of functions which are identical .
  • A
    $y = tan (cos^{ -1} x) ; y = \frac{{\sqrt {1\,\, - \,\,{x^2}} }}{x}$
  • B
    $y = tan (cot ^{-1} x) ; y = \frac{1}{x}$
  • C
    $y = sin (\, tan^{-1} x) ; y = $ $\frac{x}{{\sqrt {1\,\, + \,\,{x^2}} }}$
  • All of the above  

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of the above  
d
 $(A) \,T$ domain $[- 1, 0) \cup (0, 1]$

$(B)\,\,T$

$(C)\,\,T$

$(D)\,\, T$ $ \frac{1}{{\sqrt {1\,\, + \,\,{x^2}} }}$ , 

$(A)$ $y = tan(cos^{ -1} x)$ note that $0 < sin-1x < p$ but $tan(\pi /2)$ is not defined hence $cos^{ -1} x \,\neq$ $\frac{\pi }{2}\,$ $\Rightarrow x \neq 0$ hence domain is $[-1,1] - \{0\}$ and range is $R$. The graph is as shown.

$(B)$ $y = tan(cot^{ -1} x)$ note that $0 < cot-1x < \pi$ $\Rightarrow tan(\pi /2)$ is not defined hence $cos^{ -1} x \Rightarrow x 0$ hence domain $= R - \{0\}$ since $cot^{ -1} x \neq 0 , \pi \,\Rightarrow y \neq 0$ hence range is $R - \{0\}$ The graph is as shown.

$(C)$ $y = sin(tan^{ -1} x)$ $-\frac{\pi }{2}\,$ $< tan^{ -1} x <$ $\frac{\pi }{2}\,$ $\Rightarrow y (-1, 1)$ since $tan^{ -1} x$ is defined for all $x \in R$ and sin is also defined for all $x \in R$ $\Rightarrow$ domain is $R$ $y =$ $\frac{x}{{\sqrt {1 + {x^2}} }}\,$ The graph is as shown.

$(D)$ $y = cos(tan^{ -1} x)$ $tan^{ -1}$ $\, \in \,$ $\left( { - \,\frac{\pi }{2}\,,\,\frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$ $\Rightarrow y (0, 1]$ Domain is $R$ $y =$ $\frac{1}{{\sqrt {1 + {x^2}} }}$ Note that $sin^{ -1} (cot^{ -1} x)$ also has the same graph The graph is as shown.
