Vedclass · Answer

(A) Let $y = 	an ^{-1} x$. Then $y + \Delta y = 	an ^{-1}(x + \Delta x)$. We choose $x = 1$ and $\Delta x = -0.001$. The derivative is $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{1 + x^2}$. Using the differential approximation $dy = \frac{dx}{1 + x^2}$,we have $dy = \frac{-0.001}{1 + 1^2} = \frac{-0.001}{2} = -0.0005$. Since $	an ^{-1}(0.999) = 	an ^{-1}(1) + dy$,we get $	an ^{-1}(0.999) = \frac{\pi}{4} - 0.0005$. Using $\pi \approx 3.14159$,$\frac{\pi}{4} \approx 0.785398$. Thus,$	an ^{-1}(0.999) \approx 0.785398 - 0.0005 = 0.784898$. Rounding to $4$ decimal places,we get $0.7849$. However,based on the provided options and standard approximation methods: $\frac{\pi}{4} - 0.0005 = 0.785398 - 0.0005 = 0.784898$. Given the options,$0.7852$ is the closest intended answer.

The approximate value of $\tan ^{-1}(0.999)$ (up to $4$ decimal places) is
