The expressions in x&y is given as: x=csc(tan−1(cos(cot−1(sec(sin−1a))))); y=sec(cot−1(sin(tan−1(csc(cos−1a))))), where a∈[0,1]. Then which of the following is the correct option:
(a) x2+a2=3
(b) x=y
(c) y2+a2=3
(d) All of these
Solution
To find the correct option, we are going to individually solve x&y. We are going to solve x&y by taking the inverse trigonometric functions as some angle says θ. For e.g., considering sin−1a as θ. Then we will take sine on both the sides and from sinθ, we can find other trigonometric ratios. Then simplify x&y using this way.
Complete step by step answer:
In the above problem, we have given the value of x&y as follows:
x=csc(tan−1(cos(cot−1(sec(sin−1a)))));
y=sec(cot−1(sin(tan−1(csc(cos−1a)))))
First of all, we are going to solve x by assuming sin−1a=θ then taking sine on both the sides we get,
sin(sin−1a)=sinθ
We know that multiplying any term with its inverse will give us 1 so the evaluation of sin(sin−1)=1 and using this relation in the above we get,
a=sinθ
Now, putting sin−1a=θ in x we get,
x=csc(tan−1(cos(cot−1(secθ))))
We are going to find the value of secθ using sinθ which we have calculated above in the following manner:
a=sinθ
We know that:
secθ=cosθ1
And we know the trigonometric identity which states that:
sin2θ+cos2θ=1⇒cos2θ=1−sin2θ
Taking square root on both the sides of the above equation we get,
cosθ=1−sin2θ
Substituting the value of sinθ=a in the above equation we get,
cosθ=1−a2
Using the above relation in secθ=cosθ1 we get,
secθ=1−a21
Substituting the above value in new x we get,
x=csc(tan−1(cos(cot−1(1−a21))))
Now, we are going to assume cot−1(1−a21)=α and then taking cot on both the sides of this equation we get,
cotcot−1(1−a21)=cotα⇒1−a21=cotα
Substituting cot−1(1−a21)=α in new x we get,
x=csc(tan−1(cos(α)))
Now, we are going to find the value of cosα from cotα we get,
1−a21=cotα
We know that cotα is the ratio of base (B) to perpendicular (P) the of the right angled triangle so equating the above equation to PB we get,
1−a21=cotα=PB
Also, hypotenuse is equal to the square root of the addition of the square of perpendicular and the square of the base so hypotenuse (H) is equal to:
H=P2+B2
Substituting “B” as 1 and “P” as 1−a2 in the above equation we get,
H=(1−a2)2+12⇒H=1−a2+1⇒H=2−a2
Now, we know that cosα=HB so substituting the values of “B and H” in this cosine expression and we get,
cosα=2−a21
Substituting the above value of cosα in new x and we get,
x=csc(tan−1(2−a21))
Now, we are going to assume tan−1(2−a21)=β and then taking tan on both the sides of this equation we get,
tantan−1(2−a21)=tanβ⇒(2−a21)=tanβ
Substituting tan−1(2−a21)=β in new x we get,
x=csc(β)
Now, we are going to find the value of cscβ from tanβ we get,
(2−a21)=tanβ
We know that tanβ is the ratio of perpendicular (P) to the base (B) of the right angled triangle so equating the above equation to BP we get,
(2−a21)=tanβ=BP
Also, hypotenuse is equal to the square root of the addition of the square of perpendicular and the square of the base so hypotenuse (H) is equal to:
H=P2+B2
Substituting “P” as 1 and “B” as 2−a2 in the above equation we get,
H=12+(2−a2)2⇒H=1+2−a2⇒H=3−a2
Now, we know that cscβ=PH so substituting the values of “H and P” in this cosecant expression and we get,
cscβ=3−a2
Using the above relation in new x we get,
x=3−a2
Taking square on both the sides of the above equation we get,
