Question

If sin `(sin^-1  1/5 + cos^-1 x) = 1`, then find the value of x.

Sum

Solution

sin `(sin^-1  1/5 + cos^-1 x) = 1`

∴ `sin^-1  1/5 + cos^-1 "x" = sin^-1  (1)`

∴ `sin^-1  1/5 + cos^-1 "x" = sin^-1 (sin  pi / 2)`

∴ `sin^-1  1/5 + cos^-1 "x" = pi/2`

∴ x = `1/5       .....[because sin^-1"x" + cos^-1 "x" = pi/2]`
