AI Generated Solution

To solve the expression \( \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{y}\right) - \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x-y}{x+y}\right) \), we can use the properties of inverse tangent functions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Use the formula for the difference of two inverse tangents**: The formula for the difference of two inverse tangents is given by: \[ \tan^{-1}(a) - \tan^{-1}(b) = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{a - b}{1 + ab}\right) ...
