Let $\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\cos\text{x}}{1+\sin\text{x}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg(\frac{\cos^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{\cos^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}+2\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg)$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\frac{\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)}{\big(\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg(\frac{\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg)$
dividing by $\cos\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg[\frac{1-\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\bigg[\frac{\tan\frac{\pi}{2}-\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}\times\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\tan^{-1}\Big[\tan\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{u}=\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=0-\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=-\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1-\log\text{x}}{1+\log\text{x}}$
- C
$\text{Not defined.}$
- D
$\frac{\log\text{x}}{(1+\log\text{x})^2}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{1+\text{x}}{1+\log\text{x}}$
We have, $x^y = e^{x-y}$
Taking $\log$ on both sides we get,
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}=(\text{x}-\text{y})\log)_\text{e}\text{e}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}=\text{x}-\text{y}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}+\text{y}=\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}(1+\log\text{x})=\text{x}$

AnswerCorrect option: B. $\frac{\sin^2(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\sin\text{a}}$
We have, $\sin\text{y}=\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sin\text{y})=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big[\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\big]$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})+\text{x}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big\{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\big\}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\times1+\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})+\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\big\{\cos\text{y}-\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\big\}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\Big\{\cos\text{y}-\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})}\times\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\Big\}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\begin{bmatrix} \because \sin\text{y}=2\sin\text{c}\cos\text{x} \\ \therefore\text{x}=\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})} \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\Big\{\frac{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\cos\text{y}-\sin\text{y}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})}\Big\}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y}-\text{y})}{\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})}\times\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})$

The derivative of the function $\cot^{-1}\Big|(\cos2\text{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big|\text{ at }\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6}$ is:
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^\frac{1}{2}$
We have, $\text{y}=\cot^{-1}\Big(\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{1+\cot2\text{x}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{2\cos^2\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\cos2\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-1}{2\cos^2\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}\times-2\sin2\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\sin2\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}\times2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}\times2\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\tan\text{x}}{\sqrt{\cos2\text{x}}}$
So, at $\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6},$ we get
$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{6}}=\frac{\tan\big(\frac{\pi}{6}\big)}{\sqrt{\cos2\big(\frac{\pi}{6}\big)}}=\frac{\big(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\big)}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}}=\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^\frac{1}{2}$

If $\text{x}=\text{a}\cos^3\theta,\text{y}=\text{a}\sin^3,$ then $\sqrt{1+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2}=$
- A
$\tan^2\theta$
- B
$\sec^2\theta$
- C
$\sec^2\theta$
- ✓
$|\sec\theta|$
AnswerCorrect option: D. $|\sec\theta|$
We have, $\text{x}=\text{a}\cos^2\theta$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=\text{a}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\cos^2\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\cos\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=-3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta\ .....(\text{i})$
And,
$\text{y}=\text{a}\sin^3\theta$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=\text{a}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin^3\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}=3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\cos\theta\ .....(\text{ii})$
Dividing $(ii)$ by $(i),$ we get,
$\frac{\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}\theta}}{\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}}=\frac{3\text{a}\sin^2\theta\cos\theta}{-3\text{a}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\sin\theta}{-\cos\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-\tan\theta$
Now, $\sqrt{1+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2}=\sqrt{1+\tan^2\theta}$
$=\sqrt{\sec^2\theta}=|\sec\theta|$

Let, $\text{y}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\bigg[\log\bigg\{\text{e}^\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}\Big)^\frac{3}{4}\bigg\}\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big[\text{x}\log\text{e}+\frac{3}{4}\log\Big(\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}\Big)\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big[\text{x}+\frac{3}{4}\log\Big(\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}\Big)\Big]$

- ✓
$\frac{\cos^2(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\cos\text{a}}$
- B
$\frac{\cos\text{a}}{\cos^2(\text{a}+\text{y})}$
- C
$\frac{\sin^2\text{y}}{\cos\text{a}}$
- D
$\text{None of these.}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{\cos^2(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\cos\text{a}}$
We have, $\sin\text{y}=\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sin\text{y})=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big[\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\big]$

$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})-\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\big[\cos\text{y}+\text{x}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\big]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\Big[\cos\text{y}+\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})}\times\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})\Big]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\begin{bmatrix}\because\sin\text{y}=\text{x}\cos(\text{a}+\text{y}) \\ \because\text{x}=\frac{\sin\text{y}}{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})} \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\Big[\frac{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})\cos\text{y}+\sin\text{y}\sin(\text{a}+\text{y})}{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})}\Big]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y}-\text{y})}{\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})}\times\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\cos(\text{a}+\text{y})$

- A
$\infty$
- ✓
$1$
- C
$0$
- D
$\frac{1}{2}$
AnswerWe have, $\text{y}=\log\sqrt{\tan\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\tan\text{x}}}\times\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\sqrt{\tan\text{x}}\big)$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\sec^2\text{x}}{2\tan\text{x}}$
Now, $\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{4}}=\frac{\Big[\sec\big(\frac{\pi}{4}\big)\Big]^2}{2\tan\big(\frac{\pi}{4}\big)}=\frac{2}{2\times1}=1$

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\sqrt{\frac{1-\text{y}^6}{1-\text{x}^6}}$
We have, $\sqrt{1-\text{x}^6}+\sqrt{1-\text{y}^6}=\text{a}(\text{x}^3-\text{y}^3)$
Putting $\text{x}^3=\sin\text{A}\text{ and y}^3=\sin\text{B}$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{1-\sin^2\text{A}}+\sqrt{1-\sin2\text{B}}=\text{a}(\sin\text{A}-\sin\text{B})$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{A}+\cos\text{B}=\text{a}(\sin\text{A}-\sin\text{B})$
$\Rightarrow2\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}+\text{B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{b}}{2}\Big) \\ =2\text{a}\sin\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}+\text{B}}{2}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\cot\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)=\text{a}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{A}+\text{B}}{2}=\cot^{-1}(\text{a})$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}+\text{B}=2\cot^{-1}(\text{a})$
$\Rightarrow\sin^{-1}\text{x}^{3}-\sin^{-1}\text{y}^3=2\cot^{-1}(\text{a})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\text{x}^6}}\times\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}^3)-\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\text{y}^6}}\times\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{y}^3)=0$
