If tan^(-1)3+tan^(-1)x=tan^(-1)8 , then ...

If `tan^(-1)3+tan^(-1)x=tan^(-1)8` , then `x=` (a) 5 (b) `1//5` (c) `5//14` (d) `14//5`

A

5

B

`1/5`

C

`5/14`

D

`14/5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
We have
`tan^(-1)3+tan^(-1)x=tan^(-1)8`
`rarr tan^(-1)x=tan^(-1)8-tan^(-1)3`
`tan^(-1)x=tan^(-1)(8-3)/(1+24)rarrx=1/5`
