If the inverse trigonometric functions take principal values, then cos - 1 3 10 cos tan - 1 4 3 + 2 5 sin tan - 1 4 3 is equal to
Options
- A0
- Bπ 4
- Cπ 3
- Dπ 6
Correct answer
C. π 3
Step-by-step solution
Let tan - 1 4 3 = θ ⇒ tan θ = 4 3 ∴ cos θ = 3 5   &   sin θ = 4 5 So, cos - 1 3 10 cos tan - 1 4 3 + 2 5 sin tan - 1 4 3 = cos - 1 3 10 cos θ + 2 5 sin θ = cos - 1 3 10 × 3 5 + 2 5 × 4 5 = cos - 1 9 50 + 8 25 = cos - 1 1 2 = π 3
