The domain of the function
$$f(x) = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{3{x^2} + x - 1} \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}}}} \right) + {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{x - 1} \over {x + 1}}} \right)$$ is :
Solution
$$f(x) = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{3{x^2} + x - 1} \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}}}} \right) + {\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{x - 1} \over {x + 1}}} \right)$$<br><br>$- 1 \le {{x - 1} \over {x + 1}} \le 1 \Rightarrow 0 \le x < \infty$ .... (1)<br><br>$$ - 1 \le {{3{x^2} + x - 1} \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}}} \le 1 \Rightarrow x \in \left[ {{{ - 1} \over 4},{1 \over 2}} \right] \cup \{ 0\} $$ .... (2)<br><br>(1) & (2)<br><br>$\Rightarrow$ Domain = $\left[ {{1 \over 4},{1 \over 2}} \right] \cup \{ 0\}$
