If y = ^ - 1 ( x - x) then dy dx = - Vidyadip

MCQ

If $y = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\sec x - \tan x)$ then ${{dy} \over {dx}} = $

A
$2$
✓
$ -0.5$
C
$\frac{1}{2}$
D
$-2$

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$ -0.5$

b
(b) $y = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\sec x - \tan x)$

$\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = \frac{1}{{1 + {{(\sec x - \tan x)}^2}}}(\sec x\tan x - {\sec ^2}x)$

$\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = \frac{{{{\cos }^2}x.{{\sec }^2}x(\sin x - 1)}}{{{{(1 - \sin x)}^2} + {{\cos }^2}x}}$

$\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = \frac{{\sin x - 1}}{{1 - 2\sin x + {{\sin }^2}x + {{\cos }^2}x}} $

$= \frac{{\sin x - 1}}{{2(1 - \sin x)}} = - \frac{1}{2}.$
