Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Find the value of sin^(-1)(√3/2) + cos^(-1)(1/2).
  • Step 1: Understand the notation sin^(-1)(x) and cos^(-1)(x). These represent the inverse sine and inverse cosine functions, respectively.
  • Step 2: Find the angle whose sine is √3/2. This is sin^(-1)(√3/2). The angle is π/3 (or 60 degrees).
  • Step 3: Find the angle whose cosine is 1/2. This is cos^(-1)(1/2). The angle is also π/3 (or 60 degrees).
  • Step 4: Add the two angles together: π/3 + π/3.
  • Step 5: Simplify the sum: π/3 + π/3 = 2π/3.
  • Inverse Trigonometric Functions – Understanding the values of sin^(-1) and cos^(-1) for specific angles.
  • Angle Addition – Adding angles derived from inverse trigonometric functions.
