    If\[{{\tan }^{-1}}a+{{\tan }^{-1}}b={{\sin }^{-1}}1-{{\tan }^{-1}}c,\]then:

    A)  \[a+b+c=abc\]

    B)  \[ab+bc+ca=abc\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{c}-\frac{1}{abc}=0\]

    D)  \[ab+bc+ca=a+b+c\]

    E)  none of the above

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\because \]\[{{\tan }^{-1}}a+{{\tan }^{-1}}b+{{\tan }^{-1}}c={{\sin }^{-1}}1\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{a+b+c-abc}{1-ab-bc-ca} \right)=\frac{\pi }{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{a+b+c-abc}{1-ab-bc-ca}=\frac{1}{0}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[ab+bc+ca-1=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{c}-\frac{1}{abc}=0\]
