Question

F(x)=Tan^-1 (1) PLEASE ANSWER! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer 1

Answer:

−π

----

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, archtan /

tan

−

1

(

x

)

is the inverse of tangent. Tan is

sin

cos

. Like the inverse of sin, the inverse of tan is also restricted to quadrants 1 and 4.

Knowing this we are solving for the inverse of tan -1. We are basically being asked the question what angle/radian does tan(-1) equal. Using the unit circle we can see that tan(1)= pi/4.

Since the "Odds and Evens Identity" states that tan(-x) = -tan(x). Tan(-1)= -pi/4.

Knowing that tan is negative in quadrants 2 and 4. the answer is in either of those two quadrants. BUT!!! since inverse of tan is restricted to quadrants 1 and 4 we are left with the only answer -pi/4.
