MCQ
If $4{\sin ^{ - 1}}x + {\cos ^{ - 1}}x = \pi ,$ then $x$ is equal to
  • A
    $0$
  • $\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $ - \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{2}$
b
(b) We know that $4{\sin ^{ - 1}}x + {\cos ^{ - 1}}x = \pi $

==> $3{\sin ^{ - 1}}x + {\sin ^{ - 1}}x + {\cos ^{ - 1}}x = \pi $

==> $3{\sin ^{ - 1}}x = \pi - \frac{\pi }{2} = \frac{\pi }{2}$

==> ${\sin ^{ - 1}}x = \pi /6$

==> $x = \sin \frac{\pi }{6} = \frac{1}{2}$.
