    The differential coefficient of \[{{\tan }^{-1}}\sqrt{x}\] with respect to \[\sqrt{x}\] is       [MP PET 1987]

    A)            \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x}}\]

    B)            \[\frac{1}{2x\sqrt{1+x}}\]

    C)            \[\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x(1+x)}}\]

    D)            \[\frac{1}{1+x}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               Let \[{{y}_{1}}={{\tan }^{-1}}\sqrt{x}\]and \[{{y}_{2}}=\sqrt{x}\]            Differentiating w.r.t. x of\[{{y}_{1}}\]and \[{{y}_{2}}\], we get            \[\frac{d{{y}_{1}}}{dx}=\frac{1}{(1+x)}.\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\]and \[\frac{d{{y}_{2}}}{dx}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\]                    Hence \[\frac{d{{y}_{1}}}{d{{y}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{1+x}\].
