MCQ
If $y = {\rm{sec}}\left( {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}x} \right)$ then $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}$ at $x = 1$ is equal to :
  • $\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $\sqrt 2 $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$
a
$y=\sec \left(\tan ^{-1} x\right)$

Let $\quad \tan ^{-1} x=\theta$

${x=\tan \theta} $

${y=\sec \theta}$

${y=\sqrt{1+x^{2}}} $

${\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{1+x^{2}}} \cdot 2 x} $

 at ${x=1}$

$\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
