Question
Which of the following pair of functions are identical -
Options
A.f(x) = sin-1 x + cos-1 x and g(x) = 
B.f(x) = tan-1 x + cot-1 x and g(x) = 
C.f(x) = sec-1 x + cosec-1 x and g(x) = 
D.All of these
Solution
(A) f(x) = sin-1x + cos-1x, x ∈ [-1, 1] and g(x) =
, x ∈ R
f(x) =
, x ∈ [-1, 1] and g(x) =
, x ∈ R Non-identical functions
(B) f(x) = tan-1x + cot-1x and g(x) =
, x ∈ R
f(x) =
, x ∈ R and g(x) =
x ∈ R Identical functions
(C) f(x) = sec-1x + cosec-1x and g(x) =
, x ∈ R
f(x) =
′ |x| ∈ [1, ∞) and g(x) =
, x ∈ R Non-identical functions
f(x) =
(B) f(x) = tan-1x + cot-1x and g(x) =
f(x) =
(C) f(x) = sec-1x + cosec-1x and g(x) =
f(x) =
