For x ∈ ( 0 , 3/2 ), let f(x) =

Question:

For $x \in\left(0, \frac{3}{2}\right)$, let $f(x)=\sqrt{x}, g(x)=\tan x$ and

$h(x)=\frac{1-x^{2}}{1+x^{2}} .$ If $\phi(x)=(($ hof $) \circ g)(x)$, then

$\phi=\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$ is equal to :

  1. $\tan \frac{\pi}{12}$

  2. $\tan \frac{7 \pi}{12}$

  3. $\tan \frac{11 \pi}{12}$

  4. $\tan \frac{5 \pi}{12}$


Correct Option: , 3

Solution:

$f(x)=\sqrt{x}, g(x)=\tan x, h(x)=\frac{1-x^{2}}{1+x^{2}}$

$f o g(x)=\sqrt{\tan x}$

$\operatorname{hofog}(x)=h(\sqrt{\tan x})=\frac{1-\tan x}{1+\tan x}$

$=-\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}-x\right)$

$\phi(x)=\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}-x\right)$

$\phi\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)=\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)=\tan \left(-\frac{\pi}{12}\right)=-\tan \frac{\pi}{12}$

$=\tan \left(\pi-\frac{\pi}{12}\right)=\tan \frac{11 \pi}{12}$
