The value of ⁻¹ ( 7 6 ) is
Options
- A6
- B5 6
- C7 6
- D3
Correct answer
A. 6
Step-by-step solution
The range of the principal value branch of ⁻¹(x) is (- 2 , 2 ) . Given the expression ⁻¹( 7 6 ) , we first simplify the argument of the inverse tangent function. Since ( + ) = , we have 7 6 = ( + 6 ) = 6 . Substituting this back into the expression, we get ⁻¹( 6 ) . Since 6 lies within the principal value branch (- 2 , 2 ) , the expression simplifies to 6 .
