MCQ
If $\angle A = {90^o}$ in the triangle ABC, then ${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{c}{{a + b}}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{b}{{a + c}}} \right) = $
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $1$
  • $\pi /4$
  • D
    $\pi /6$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\pi /4$
c
(c) $\angle A = {90^o}$

${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{c}{{a + b}}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{b}{{a + c}}} \right)$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{\frac{c}{{a + b}} + \frac{b}{{a + c}}}}{{1 - \left( {\frac{c}{{a + b}}} \right)\left( {\frac{b}{{a + c}}} \right)}}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{ca + {c^2} + ab + {b^2}}}{{{a^2} + ab + ca + bc - bc}}} \right]$

$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{{{a^2} + ab + ca}}{{{a^2} + ab + ca}}} \right]$

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