To prove the inequality \(\frac{b-a}{1+b^2} < \tan^{-1} b - \tan^{-1} a < \frac{b-a}{1+a^2}\) using Lagrange's Mean Value Theorem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the function Let \( f(x) = \tan^{-1} x \). We need to analyze this function on the interval \([a, b]\) where \( b > a > 0 \). ### Step 2: Check the conditions for Mean Value Theorem The function \( f(x) \) is continuous and differentiable for all \( x \) in \((0, \infty)\). Thus, the conditions for applying Lagrange's Mean Value Theorem are satisfied. ...
