The value of `tan^(-1)tan(-6)`is

A

`2pi-6`

B

`2pi+6`

C

`6-2pi`

D

`3pi-6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

We know that `tan^(-1)(tan theta)=theta if -(pi)/(2)le theta le(pi)/(2)`
Here`theta =-6` radians which does not lie between
However `2pi-6` lies between `-(pi)/(2)and (pi)/(2)` such that
`tan(2pi-6)=-tan 6 = tan(-6)`
`therefore tan^(-1){tan^(-6)}=tan^(-1){tan(tan(2pi-6))}=2pi-6`
