Question
Question: If \(\tan ^ { - 1 } \frac { 1 - x } { 1 + x } = \frac { 1 } { 2 } \tan ^ { - 1 } x\) , then x =...
If tan−11+x1−x=21tan−1x , then x =
A
1
B
3
C
31
D
None of these
Answer
31
Explanation
Solution
We have tan−11+x1−x=21tan−1x
⇒tan−1[1+tanθ1−tanθ]=21θ (Putting x=tanθ)
⇒tan−1[1+tan4πtanθtan4π−tanθ]=2θ
⇒tan−1tan(4π−θ)=2θ⇒4π−θ=2θ
⇒θ=6π=tan−1x⇒x=tan6π=31.
