Solution

Dear Student,

tan-1x2 + cot-1x2 = 5π28tan-1x +cot-1x 2 + 2 tan-1x cot-1x = 5π28π22 - 2 tan-1xπ2 - tan-1x = 5π28π24 - 2 ×π2×tan-1x + 2tan-1x2 = 5π28π24 -π tan-1x + 2tan-1x2 = 5π282tan-1x2 -π tan-1x - 3π28 = 02tan-1x2 + π2tan-1x - 3π2tan-1x- 3π28 = 0tan-1x2 tan-1x + π2 - 3π42 tan-1x + π2 = 0tan-1x - 3π4 2 tan-1x + π2 = 0tan-1x = 3π4; tan-1x = -π4Now, tan-1x = -π4x = -1Neglecting, tan-1x = 3π4 as tan-1x ]-π/2, π/2[
