Question:

If $3tan^{-1}x+cot^{-1}x=\pi $, then x equals to :

Options:

-1

1

$\frac{1}{2}$

0

Correct Answer:

1

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (2) → 1

$3\tan^{-1}x+\cot^{-1}x=\pi$

$⇒2\tan^{-1}x+\frac{\pi}{2}=\pi$

so $2\tan^{-1}x=\frac{\pi}{2}$

so $\tan^{-1}x=\frac{\pi}{4}$

$⇒x=1$
