Question

Prove the following: 

`2tan^-1(1/3) = tan^-1(3/4)`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

L.H.S. = `2tan^-1(1/3)`

`= tan^-1[(2(1/3))/(1 - (1/3)^2)] ...[∵ 2tan^-1 x = tan^-1((2x)/(1 - x^2))]`

= `tan^-1[((2/3))/(1 - 1/9)]`

= `tan^-1(2/3 xx 9/8)`

= `tan^-1(3/4)`

= R.H.S.

Alternative Method:

L.H.S. = `2tan^-1(1/3) = tan^-1(1/3) + tan^-1(1/3)`

= `tan^-1[(1/3 + 1/3)/(1 - 1/3 xx 1/3)]`

= `tan^-1((3 + 3)/(9 - 1))`

= `tan^-1(6/8)`

= `tan^-1(3/4)`

= R.H.S.
