Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\sqrt{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \(\Rightarrow \tan ^{-1} x+\cot ^{-1} x+\cot ^{-1} x=\frac{2 \pi}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{\pi}{2}+\cot ^{-1} x=\frac{2 \pi}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad \cot ^{-1} x=\frac{2 \pi}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad \cot ^{-1} x=\frac{\pi}{6}\)…
