Question : 1
Total: 29
Write the principal value of tan1 (1) + cos1(
1
2
)
Solution:  
Let tan1 (1) = y
⇒ tan y = 1 = tan (
π
4
)
⇒ y =
π
4

tan1(1) =
π
4

cos1(
1
2
)
= z
⇒ cos z =
1
2
= - cos
π
3
= cos (π
π
3
)
= cos (
2π
3
)

⇒ z =
2π
3
cos1(
1
2
)
=
2π
3

tan1 (1) + cos1(
1
2
)
=
π
4
+
2π
3
=
11π
