Question

Find the principal value of the following:

cosec−1 (2)

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let cosec−1 (2) = y

Then, cosec y = 2 = `"cosec" (pi/6)`

We know that the range of the principal value branch of cosec−1 is `[-pi/2, pi/2] - {0}`.

Therefore, the principal value of  cosec−1 (2) is `pi/6`.
