If a root of the equation tan−1α+tan−1β is 4, while the roots of the equation π/4 are same, then the value of π/2will be.
A
4
B
4/49
C
49/4
D
None of these
Answer
49/4
Explanation
Solution
Put x4−4x3+6x2−4x+1=0in 8x3−14x2+7x−1=0, we get 1,21,41
Now second equation 4x3+16x2−9x−36=0 have equal roots. Therefore −2,32,−32.
