Detailed explanation
(A) If \(a=1\) and \(b=0\), then \(\sin ^{-1} x+\cos ^{-1} y=0\)
\[
\Rightarrow \quad \sin ^{-1} x=-\cos ^{-1} y \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=1
\]
(B) If \(a=1\) and \(b=1\), then
\[
\begin{array}{rlrl}
& & \sin ^{-1} x+\cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1} x y & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & \cos ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} y & =\cos ^{-1} x y \\
\Rightarrow & x y+\sqrt{1-x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =x y \quad \text { [taking sine on both the sides] }
\end{array}
\]
(C) If \(a=1\) and \(b=2\), then
\[
\begin{aligned}
& & \sin ^{-1} x+\cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & \cos ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} y & =\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) \\
\Rightarrow & & x y+\sqrt{1-x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =2 x y \\
\Rightarrow & & x^2+y^2 & =1
\end{aligned}
\]

(D) If \(a=2\) and \(b=2\), then
\[
\begin{aligned}
& & \sin ^{-1}(2 x)+\cos ^{-1}(y)+\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & 2 x y+\sqrt{1+4 x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =2 x y \\
\Rightarrow & & \left(4 x^2-1\right)\left(y^2-1\right) & =0 .
\end{aligned}
\]
\[
\Rightarrow \quad \sin ^{-1} x=-\cos ^{-1} y \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=1
\]
(B) If \(a=1\) and \(b=1\), then
\[
\begin{array}{rlrl}
& & \sin ^{-1} x+\cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1} x y & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & \cos ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} y & =\cos ^{-1} x y \\
\Rightarrow & x y+\sqrt{1-x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =x y \quad \text { [taking sine on both the sides] }
\end{array}
\]
(C) If \(a=1\) and \(b=2\), then
\[
\begin{aligned}
& & \sin ^{-1} x+\cos ^{-1} y+\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & \cos ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} y & =\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) \\
\Rightarrow & & x y+\sqrt{1-x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =2 x y \\
\Rightarrow & & x^2+y^2 & =1
\end{aligned}
\]
[on squaring]
(D) If \(a=2\) and \(b=2\), then
\[
\begin{aligned}
& & \sin ^{-1}(2 x)+\cos ^{-1}(y)+\cos ^{-1}(2 x y) & =\frac{\pi}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & & 2 x y+\sqrt{1+4 x^2} \sqrt{1-y^2} & =2 x y \\
\Rightarrow & & \left(4 x^2-1\right)\left(y^2-1\right) & =0 .
