\(sin^{-1}\bigg(sin\frac{2π}{3}\bigg)+cos^{-1}\bigg(cos\frac{7π}{6}\bigg)+tan^{-1}\bigg(tan\frac{3π}{4}\bigg)\) is equal to:
- \(\frac{11π}{12}\)
- \(\frac{17π}{12}\)
- \(\frac{31π}{12}\)
- \(-\frac{3π}{4}\)
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
\(sin^{-1}\bigg(\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\bigg)+cos^{-1}\bigg(\frac{-\sqrt3}{2}\bigg)+tan^{-1}(-1)\)
= \(\frac{π}{3}+\frac{5π}{6}-\frac{π}{4}\)
= \(\frac{4π+10π-3π}{12}\)
=\(\frac{11π}{12}\)
Hence, the correct option is (A): \(\frac{11π}{12}\)

Trigonometric Identities
Various trigonometric identities are as follows:
Even and Odd Functions
Cosecant and Secant are even functions, all the others are odd.
- sin (-A) = – sinA,
- cos (-A) = cos A,
- cosec (-A) = -cosec A,
- cot (-A) = -cot A,
- tan (-A) = – tan A,
- sec (-A) = sec A.
Pythagorean Identities
- sin2θ + cos2θ = 1
- 1 + tan2θ = sec2θ
- 1 + cot2θ = cosec2θ

Sum and Difference Identities
- T-Ratios of (x + y)

cos (x+y) = cosx.cosy – sinx.siny - T-Ratios of (x – y)
sin (x–y) = sinx.cosy – cos.x.sin y
cos (x-y) = cosx.cosy + sinx.siny
Product of T-ratios
- 2sinx cosy = sin(x+y) + sin(x–y)
- 2cosx siny = sin(x+y) – sin(x–y)
- 2 cosx cosy = cos(x+y) + cos(x–y)
- 2sinx.siny = cos(x–y) – cos(x+y)
