Question
Prove that:
$\tan^{-1}\frac{63}{16}=\sin^{-1}\frac{5}{13}+\cos^{-1}\frac{3}{5}$

Answer

$\text{Let}\sin^{-1}\frac{5}{13}=x.\text{Then},\sin x=\frac{5}{13}\Rightarrow\cos x=\frac{12}{13}.$
$\therefore \tan x=\frac{5}{12}\Rightarrow x=\tan^{-1}\frac{5}{12}$
$\therefore\sin^{-1}\frac{5}{13}=\tan^{-1}\frac{5}{12} \dots\dots(1)$
$\text{Let}\cos^{-1}\frac{3}{5}=y.\text{Then},\cos y=\frac{3}{5}\Rightarrow\sin y=\frac{4}{5}.$
$\therefore\tan y=\frac{4}{3}\Rightarrow y=\tan^{-1}\frac{4}{5}.$
$\therefore\cos^{-1}\frac{3}{5}=\tan^{-1}\frac{4}{3} \dots\dots(2)$
Using (1) and (2), we have
$\text{R.H.S.}=\sin^{-1}\frac{5}{13}+\cos^{-1}\frac{3}{5}$
$=\tan^{-1}\frac{5}{12}+\tan^{-1}\frac{4}{3}$

$=\tan^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{\frac{5}{12}+\frac{4}{3}}{1-\frac{5}{12}\times\frac{4}{3}}\Bigg)$ $\left[\tan^{-1}x+\tan^{-1}y=\tan^{-1}\frac{x+y}{1-xy}\right]$

$=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{15+48}{36-20}\right)$

$=\tan^{-1}\frac{63}{16}$

= L.H.S.

A company sells two different products A and B. The two products are produced in a common production process and are sold in two different markets. The production process has a total capacity of 45000 man-hours. It takes 5 hours to produce a unit of A and 3 hours to produce a unit of B. The market has been surveyed and company officials feel that the maximum number of units of A that can be sold is 7000 and that of B is 10,000. If the profit is Rs. 60 per unit for the product A and Rs. 40 per unit for the product B, how many units of each product should be sold to maximize profit? Formulate the problem as LPP.
