    Assertion [A]: The value of \[\sin \left( {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{a}{b} \right)\] is \[\frac{a}{\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}-{{a}^{2}}}}\].
    Reason [R]: The value of \[\tan \left( {{\cot }^{-1}}\frac{a}{b} \right)\] is \[\frac{b}{a}\].
     

    A) Both A and R are individually true and R is the correct explanation of A.

    B) Both A and R are individually true and R is not the correct explanation of A.

    C) 'A' is true but 'R' is false

    D) 'A' is false but 'R' is true

    E) Both A and R are false.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

             \[\sin \left( {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{a}{b} \right)=\sin \left( {{\sin }^{-1}}\frac{a}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}} \right)=\frac{a}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}\] Reason (R) : \[\tan \left( {{\cot }^{-1}}\frac{a}{b} \right)=\tan \left( {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{b}{a} \right)=\frac{b}{a}\]. Here Assertion [A] is false and Reason [R] is true. \[\therefore \]Option [D] is the correct answer.
