Question Number 44172 by rahul 19 last updated on 22/Sep/18
The number of solutions of the equation  cos^(−1) ((x^2 −1)/(x^2 +1)) + sin^(−1) ((2x)/(x^2 +1)) +tan^(−1) ((2x)/(x^2 −1))=((2π)/3).

x=tan (θ/2)  ((x^2 −1)/(x^2 +1))=−cos θ  ((2x)/(x^2 +1))=sin θ  ((2x)/(x^2 −1))=−tan θ  but arccos(−cos θ), arcsin(sin θ) and  arctan(−tan θ) are strange functions and  we get (z∈Z)  θ_1 =(π/3)+2πz ⇒ x_1 =((√3)/3)  θ_2 =((7π)/9)+2πz ⇒ x_2 =cot (π/9) =tan ((7π)/(18))  θ_3 =((5π)/3)+2πz ⇒ x_3 =−((√3)/3)

also if you draw the original equation you  see the 3 solutions
