MCQ
$\tan \left[ {2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{1}{5}} \right) - \frac{\pi }{4}} \right] = $
  • A
    $\frac{{17}}{7}$
  • B
    $ - \frac{{17}}{7}$
  • C
    $\frac{7}{{17}}$
  • $ - \frac{7}{{17}}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$ - \frac{7}{{17}}$
d
(d) $\tan \left[ {2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{1}{5}} \right) - \frac{\pi }{4}} \right] = \tan \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\frac{{\frac{2}{5}}}{{1 - \frac{1}{{25}}}} - {{\tan }^{ - 1}}(1)} \right]$

$ = \tan \left[ {{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\frac{5}{{12}} - {{\tan }^{ - 1}}(1)} \right] = \tan {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{\frac{5}{{12}} - 1}}{{1 + \frac{5}{{12}}}}} \right) = - \frac{7}{{17}}$.
