Solution

The correct options are
A $x = 0, n = 0$
B $x = 1, n = 1$
C $x = - 1, n = - 1$
${tan}^{- 1} (x) + {tan}^{- 1} (2 x)$
$= {tan}^{- 1} (\frac{3 x}{1 - 2 x^{2}})$
$= n π - {tan}^{- 1} 3 x$
Hence, $\frac{3 x}{1 - 2 x^{2}} = tan (n π - t a n^{- 1} (3 x))$
Now for all $n ϵ I^{+}$ we get
$\frac{3 x}{1 - 2 x^{2}} = tan (n π - {tan}^{- 1} (3 x))$
$= - tan ({tan}^{- 1} (3 x))$
$= - 3 x$
Hence
$\frac{3 x}{1 - 2 x^{2}} = - 3 x$
$3 x [\frac{1}{1 - 2 x^{2}} + 1] = 0$
$3 x [\frac{2 - 2 x^{2}}{1 - 2 x^{2}}] = 0$
$6 x [\frac{1 - x^{2}}{1 - 2 x^{2}}] = 0$
Hence $x = 0$ and $x^{2} - 1 = 0$
$x = \pm 1$ .
Hence for all $n ϵ {0, 1, 2, . . . N}$ we get $x = - 1, 0, 1$ .
Now for $n ϵ I^{-}$ we get
$\frac{3 x}{1 - 2 x^{2}} = - {tan}^{- 1} (n π + {tan}^{- 1} (3 x))$
$3 x [\frac{2 - 2 x^{2}}{1 - 2 x^{2}}] = 0$
$6 x [\frac{1 - x^{2}}{1 - 2 x^{2}}] = 0$
Hence for $n ϵ {- 1, - 2, - 3... - N}$ $x = {- 1, 0, 1}$ .
