Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2021

The value of $$\tan \left( {2{{\tan }^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 5}} \right) + {{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {{5 \over {13}}} \right)} \right)$$ is equal to :

  1. A ${{ - 181} \over {69}}$
  2. B ${{220} \over {21}}$ Correct answer
  3. C ${{ - 291} \over {76}}$
  4. D ${{151} \over {63}}$

Solution

$$2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 5}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{6/5} \over {1 - {9 \over {{2^5}}}}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{{6 \over 5}} \over {{{16} \over {25}}}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}{{15} \over 8}$$<br><br>$\therefore$ $$2{\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 5}} \right) + {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{5 \over {13}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{15} \over 8}} \right) + {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{5 \over {12}}} \right)$$<br><br>$$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{{{15} \over 8} + {5 \over {12}}} \over {1 - {{15} \over 8},{5 \over {12}}}}} \right)$$<br><br>$$ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{180 + 40} \over {21}}} \right) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{220} \over {21}}} \right)$$
