Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that \( 2\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{7}\right) = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{31}{17}\right) \), we will use the formula for the addition of inverse tangent functions. ### Step 1: Use the double angle formula for tangent We know that: \[ 2\tan^{-1}(x) = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{2x}{1-x^2}\right) \] Let \( x = \frac{1}{2} \): ...
