Find the principal value of cot^-1(-√3)
Principal Value of cot⁻¹(−√3) Find the Principal Value of cot-1(−√3) Solution: Let \[ y = \cot^{-1}(-\sqrt{3}) \] Then, \[ \cot y = -\sqrt{3} \] We know: \[ \cot\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \sqrt{3} \] So, \[ \cot y = -\sqrt{3} = \cot\left(\pi – \frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \cot\left(\frac{5\pi}{6}\right) \] Principal value range of cot⁻¹(x): \[ (0, \pi) \] Since \( […]
