cos^(-1) (cos (2 cot^(-1) (sqrt2 -1))) i...

`cos^(-1) (cos (2 cot^(-1) (sqrt2 -1)))` is equal to

A

`sqrt2 -1`

B

`(pi)/(4)`

C

`(3pi)/(4)`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`cos^(-1) (cos (2 cot^(-1) (sqrt2 -1))) = cos^(-1) (cos (2(67.5^(@))))`
`= cos^(-1) (cos (135^(@)))`
`= 135^(@) = (3pi)/(4)`
