    If \[{{\tan }^{-1}}(2x)+ta{{n}^{-1}}(3x)=\frac{\pi }{4}\]then x is equal to

    A) -1

    B) -2

    C) 1

    D) 2

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Given: \[{{\tan }^{-1}}(2x)+ta{{n}^{-1}}(3x)=\frac{\pi }{4}\] \[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\frac{(2x+3x)}{(1-2x.3x)}={{\tan }^{-1}}(1)\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{5x}{1-6{{x}^{2}}}=1\Rightarrow 6{{x}^{2}}+5x-1=0\] \[\Rightarrow (6x-1)(x+1)=0\Rightarrow x=\frac{1}{6}or-1.\]
