Question

Show that `cot^-1  1/3 - tan^-1  1/3 = cot^-1  3/4`.

Sum

Solution

LHS = `cot^-1  1/3 - tan^-1  1/3`

`= tan^-1 3 - tan^-1  1/3    ....[because cot^-1 "x" = tan^-1 (1/"x")]`

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

`= tan^-1 [(8/3)/(1 + 1)]`

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

`= cot^-1 (3/4)     ....[tan^-1 "x" = cot^-1 (1/"x")]`

= RHS.
