JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 2. inverse trigonometric function

Let \(\alpha = 3\sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{6}{11}\right)\) and \(\beta = 3\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac{4}{9}\right)\), where inverse trigonometric functions take only the principal values.
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: \(\cos(\alpha+\beta) > 0\).
Statement II: \(\cos(\alpha) < 0\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. B Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. C Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. D Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We are given \(\alpha = 3\sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{6}{11}\right)\) and \(\beta = 3\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac{4}{9}\right)\). First, we find the range of \(\alpha\). Since \(\dfrac{1}{2} 0\). Thus, Statement I is true. Both Statement I and Statement II are true. Answer: Both Statement I…
