NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 5 Continuity And Differentiability · Miscellaneous Exercise Question 6

Differentiate cot⁻¹[(√(1+sin x)+√(1−sin x))/(√(1+sin x)−√(1−sin x))], 0<x<π/2.

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 1/2.
  1. On this interval √(1+sin x)=cos(x/2)+sin(x/2), and √(1−sin x)=cos(x/2)−sin(x/2).
  2. The quotient is cot(x/2). Since x/2∈(0,π/4), principal cot⁻¹ returns x/2. Differentiate to obtain 1/2.
