Question

The value of tan1(cos(15π4)1sin(π4)){\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{\cos \left( {{{15\pi } \over 4}} \right) - 1} \over {\sin \left( {{\pi \over 4}} \right)}}} \right) is equal to :

Solution

tan1(cos(15π4)1sinπ4){\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{\cos \left( {{{15\pi } \over 4}} \right) - 1} \over {\sin {\pi \over 4}}}} \right) =tan1(12112) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{{1 \over {\sqrt 2 }} - 1} \over {{1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}}}} \right) =tan1(12)=tan1(21) = {\tan ^{ - 1}}(1 - \sqrt 2 ) = - {\tan ^{ - 1}}(\sqrt 2 - 1) =π8 = - {\pi \over 8}
