Answer» Correct Answer - A `2 cos^(-1) x = cot^(-1) ((2x^(2) -1)/(2x sqrt(1 -x^(2))))` Put `x = cos theta : L.H.S. = 2 theta, 0 le theta le pi` and `-1 le x le 1`...(i) `R.H.S. = cot^(-1) ((cos 2 theta)/(2 cos theta|sin theta|)) = cot^(-1) (cot 2 theta) = 2 theta` if `0 lt 2 theta le pi`...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii) , we get `0 lt theta lt pi//2`. Thus, `x in (0, 1)` |
