Inverse Trigonometric Functions Question 81

Question: If $ {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{\pi }<\frac{\pi }{3},x\in N, $ than the maximum value of x is

Options:

A) 2

B) 5

C) 7

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

We have, $ {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{\pi }<\frac{\pi }{3}\Rightarrow \tan ( {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{x}{\pi } )<\tan \frac{\pi }{3} $

$ \Rightarrow \frac{x}{\pi }<\sqrt{3}\Rightarrow x<\sqrt{3}\pi =5.5 $ (approx.)

$ \therefore $ the maximum value of x is 5.
