Examples
1. Total number of positive integral values of $n$ sothat the equation $\cos ^{-1} x+\left(\sin ^{-1} y\right)^{2}=\frac{n \pi^{2}}{4}$ and $\left(\sin ^{-1} \mathrm{y}\right)^{2}-\cos ^{-1} \mathrm{x}=\frac{\pi^{2}}{16}$ are consistent, is equal to
(a). 1
(b). 4
(c). 3
(d). 2
Show Answer
Solution:
$ \text { we have } 2\left(\sin ^{-1} \mathrm{y}\right)^{2}=\frac{(4 \mathrm{n}+1) \pi^{2}}{16} \quad \text { On adding the two given equations } $
$0\leq \frac{(4 \mathrm{n}+1) \pi^{2}}{16} \leq \frac{2 \pi^{2}}{4} \Rightarrow-\frac{1}{4} \leq \mathrm{n} \leq \frac{7}{4}$
Also $2 \cos ^{-1} \mathrm{x}=\frac{(4 \mathrm{n}-1) \pi^{2}}{16}$ On subtracting the two given equations
$0\leq \frac{(4 n-1) \pi^{2}}{16} \leq 2 \pi \Rightarrow \frac{1}{4} \leq \mathrm{n} \leq \frac{8}{\pi}+\frac{1}{4}$
$\therefore \mathrm{n}=1$

Minimum value of $\mathrm{y}=\frac{\pi}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi^{2}}{16}=\frac{\pi^{3}}{32} \quad$ sin ce $\left(\sin ^{-1} \mathrm{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)^{2} \geq 0$

(b). $\mathrm{A}<\mathrm{B}$
(c). $\mathrm{A}>\mathrm{B}$
(d). None of these
Show Answer
Solution:
$ \mathrm{A}=2 \tan ^{-1}(2 \sqrt{2}-1)=2 \tan ^{-1}(1.828)>2 \tan ^{-1} \sqrt{3} $
$ \begin{aligned} \mathrm{A} & >\frac{2 \pi}{3} \\ 3\sin ^{-1} \frac{1}{3} & =\sin ^{-1}\left(3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}-4\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{3}\right)=\sin ^{-1}\left(1-\frac{4}{27}\right)=\sin ^{-1} \frac{23}{27}=\sin ^{-1}(0.852) \\ 3\sin ^{-1} \frac{1}{3} & <\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \\ \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{5}\right) & =\sin ^{-1}(0.6)<\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \\ \therefore \mathrm{B} & <\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{2 \pi}{3} \end{aligned} $
Hence $\mathrm{A}>\mathrm{B}$

| (d). If $a=2$ and $b=2$, then ( $x, y)$ | (s). Lies on the $(4x^2-1)(y^2-1)=0$ |
Show Answer
Solution:
$ \begin{aligned} & \cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1} b x y=\frac{\pi}{2}-\sin ^{-1} a x \\ & \cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1} b x y=\cos ^{-1} a x \end{aligned} $
$\begin{aligned} & \text { Let } \cos ^{-1} y=A, \cos ^{-1} b x y=B \text { and } \cos ^{-1} a x=C \\ & A+B=C \\ & B=A-C \\ & \cos (A-C)=\cos B \\ & \cos A \cos C+\sin A \sin C=\cos B \\ & y a x+\sin A \sin C=b x y \\ & \sin A \sin C=b x y-a x y \\ & \sin ^2 A \sin ^2 C=(b-a)^2 x^2 y^2 \\ & \left(1-a^2 x^2\right)\left(1-y^2\right)=x^2 y^2(b-a)^2\end{aligned}$
(a). Put $\mathrm{a}=1$ and $\mathrm{b}=0$
$ \begin{aligned} & \left(1-x^{2}\right)\left(1-y^{2}\right)=x^{2} y^{2} \\ & x^{2}+y^{2}=1 \end{aligned} $

(a). $\frac{1}{2}$
(b). $1$
(c). $-\frac{1}{2}$
(d). $-1$
Show Answer
Solution:
$ \begin{aligned} & \sin ^{-1}\left(x-\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{x^{3}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots\right)=\frac{\pi}{2}-\cos ^{-1}\left(x^{2}-\frac{x^{4}}{2}+\frac{x^{6}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots\right) \\ & \sin ^{-1}\left(x-\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{x^{3}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots\right)=\sin ^{-1}\left(x^{2}-\frac{x^{4}}{2}+\frac{x^{6}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots . .\right) \end{aligned} $
or $\sin^{-1} \theta +\cos^{-1} \theta =1 / 2$
so,
$x^{2}-\frac{x^{4}}{2}+\frac{x^{6}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots=x-\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{x^{3}}{4} \ldots \ldots \ldots$
$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{\mathrm{x}^{2}}{1-\left(-\frac{\mathrm{x}^{2}}{2}\right)}=\frac{\mathrm{x}}{1-\left(-\frac{\mathrm{x}}{2}\right)} \quad \because \mathrm{S} _{\infty}=\frac{\mathrm{a}}{1-\mathrm{r}} \quad|\mathrm{r}|<1\\ & \frac{2 \mathrm{x}^{2}}{2+\mathrm{x}^{2}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{x}}{2+\mathrm{x}} \\ & 2 \mathrm{x}^{2}+\mathrm{x}^{3}=2 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{x}^{3} \\ & 2 \mathrm{x}(\mathrm{x}-1)=0 \\ & \mathrm{x}=0,1 \\ & \mathrm{x}=1 \quad (0<|x|\sqrt{2})\\ \end{aligned} $
