Question
Find the principal value of the following:
`tan^(-1) (-sqrt3)`
Advertisements
Solution
Let `tan^(-1) (-sqrt(3))` = y
Then tan y = `-sqrt(3) = -tan pi/3 = tan (-pi/3)`
We know that the range of the principal value branch of tan−1 x is `(-pi/2, pi/2)` and `tan(-pi/3)` are `-sqrt(3)`.
Therefore, the principal value of `tan^(-1) (-sqrt3)` is `- pi/3`.
