If \(x_1, x_2, x_3\) are the real roots of the equation \(x^3-x^2 \tan \theta+x \tan ^2 \theta+\tan \theta=0\) and \(0 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{4}\), then the value of \(\tan ^{-1} x_1+\tan ^{-1} x_2+\tan ^{-1} x_3\) at \(\theta=\frac{\pi}{12}\) is

  1. A \(\frac{\pi}{6}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\pi}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{\pi}{6}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to given informations, \(\begin{aligned} & x_1+x_2+x_3=\tan \theta \\ & x_1 x_2+x_2 x_3+x_3 x_4=\tan ^2 \theta \\ & \text { and } \quad x_1 x_2 x_3=-\tan \theta \\ & \text { So, } \tan ^{-1} x_1+\tan ^{-1} x_2+\tan ^{-1} x_3\end{aligned}\)…
