Sum

Solution

Let y = tan–1 (cosec x + cot x)

= `tan^-1(1/sinx + cosx/sinx)`

= `tan^-1((1 + cosx)/(sinx))`

= `tan^-1[(2cos^2(x/2))/(2sin(x/2)*cos(x/2))]`

= `tan^-1[cot(x/2)]`

= `tan^-1[tan(π/2 - x/2)]`

= `π/2 - x/2`

Differentiating w.r.t.x, we get

`dy/dx = d/dx(π/2 - x/2)`

= `d/dx(π/2) - 1/2 d/dx(x)`

= `0 - 1/2 xx 1`

= `-1/2`
