Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{-7}{24}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \tan \left(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)-2 \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \tan \left(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)-\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 \times \frac{1}{2}}{1-\frac{1}{4}}\right)\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \tan \left(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)-\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \tan \left(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\frac{3}{4}-\frac{4}{3}}{1+1}\right)\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{9-16}{24}=\frac{-7}{24}\end{aligned}\)
