If \(y=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 x}{1+x^2}\right)+\sec ^{-1}\left(\frac{1+x^2}{1-x^2}\right)\) then the value of \(\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{d} x}\) at \(x=\sqrt{3}\) is

  1. A \(1\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{4}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(x=\tan\theta\). Since \(x=\sqrt{3}>1\), then \(\theta \in \left(\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\). \(\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{2x}{1+x^2}\right) = \sin^{-1}(\sin 2\theta)\). For \(2\theta \in \left(\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right)\), this is \(\pi - 2\theta = \pi - 2\tan^{-1}x\).
