JEE Main 2024 Mathematics question
Considering only the principal values of inverse trigonometric functions, the number of positive real values of x satisfying tan⁻¹(x) + tan⁻¹(2x) = π/4 is :
Answer: (B)
Solution
Let f(x) = tan⁻¹x + tan⁻¹2x. Then f′(x) = 1/(1 + x²) + 2/(1 + 4x²) > 0, so f is strictly increasing with f(0) =
