If $\cot ^{-1}(\alpha)=\cot ^{-1} 2+\cot ^{-1} 8+\cot ^{-1} 18$ $+\cot ^{-1} 32+\ldots . .$ upto $100$ terms, then $\alpha$ is
  • $1.01$
  • B
    $1.00$
  • C
    $1.02$
  • D
    $1.03$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.01$
a
$\operatorname{Cot}^{-1}(\alpha)=\cot ^{-1}(2)+\cot ^{-1}(8)+\cot ^{-1}(18)+\ldots .$

$=\sum_{n=1}^{100} \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{4 n^{2}}\right)$

$=\sum_{n=1}^{100} \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{(2 n+1)-(2 n-1)}{1+(2 n+1)(2 n-1)}\right)$

$=\sum_{n=1}^{100} \tan ^{-1}(2 n+1)-\tan ^{-1}(2 n-1)$

$=\tan ^{-1} 201-\tan ^{-1} 1$

$=\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{200}{202}\right)$

$\therefore \cot ^{-1}(\alpha)=\cot ^{-1}\left(\frac{202}{200}\right)$

$\alpha=1.01$
