Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\because f(x)=\tan x\)
Since, \(f^{-1}\) is inverse of \(f\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad f\left(f^{-1}(l)\right)=1\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \tan \left(f^{-1}(1)\right)=1\)
But \(\quad \tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=1\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \tan \left(f^{-1}(1)\right)=\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\)
\(\therefore \quad f^{-1}(\mathrm{l})=\frac{\pi}{4}\)
