Let the function \(g:(-\infty, \infty) \rightarrow\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\) be given by \(g(u)=2 \tan ^{-1}\left(e^u\right)-\frac{\pi}{2}\). Then, \(g\) is

  1. A
    even and is strictly increasing in \((0, \infty)\)
  2. B
    odd and is strictly decreasing in \((-\infty, \infty)\)
  3. C
    odd and is strictly increasing in \((-\infty, \infty)\)
  4. D
    Neither even nor odd, but is strictly increasing in \((-\infty, \infty)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C)
odd and is strictly increasing in \((-\infty, \infty)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\therefore \quad g(u)=2 \tan ^{-1}\left(e^u\right)-\frac{\pi}{2}\)
for \(\quad u \in(-\infty, \infty)\)
and
\[
\begin{aligned}
g(-u) & =2 \tan ^{-1}\left(e^{-u}\right)-\frac{\pi}{2} \\
& =2\left(\cot ^{-1}\left(e^u\right)\right)-\frac{\pi}{2} \\
& =2\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\tan ^{-1}\left(e^u\right)\right)-\frac{\pi}{2} \\
& =\frac{\pi}{2}-2 \tan ^{-1}\left(e^u\right)=-g(u)
\end{aligned}
\]
\(\therefore \quad g(-u)=-g(u)\)
\(\Rightarrow g(u)\) is an odd function.
