Mathematics Question on Properties of Inverse Trigonometric Functions
The value of sin−1(cos553π) is
A
53π
B
5−3π
C
10π
D
10−π
Answer
10−π
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is D:10−π
We have, sin−1(cos553π)=sin−1[cos(10π+53π)]
=sin−1[cos(53π)]
[∵cos(2nπ±θ)=cosθ]
=sin−1[sin(2π−53π)]
=sin−1[sin(105π−6π)]
=sin−1[sin(10−π)]=10−π
