`sec^(2) (tan^(-1) 2) + cosec^(2) (cot^(-1) 3)` is equal to

A

5

B

10

C

15

D

20

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We have
`sec^(2)(tan^(-1)2)+cosec^(2)(cot^(-1)3)`
`{sec(tan^(-1)2)}^(2)+{cosec(cot^(-1)3)`
`=[sec(tan^(-1)2)^(2)+{cosec(cot^(-1)3)^(2)`
`={sec(sec^(-1))sqrt(5)^(2)+cosec (cot^(-1))3/1}^(2)`
`{sec(sec^(-1)2/1)}^(2)+(cosec(cosec^(-1))sqrt(10))^(2)`
`=sqrt(5)^(2)+sqrt(10)^(2)=15`
