Find x :
tan-1 ( x-1 ) + tan-1x + tan-1 ( x+1 ) = tan-1 3x

tan-1(x+1+x-1 / 1-(x+1)(x-1)) = tan-1 3 + tan-1  x  ............when x2-1<3 and 3x<1
                               

solve it .......and u'll get (2x/2-x2 ) = (3-x/1+3x) when x lies between -√2 and 1/3
i.e. x+1(x2 -10x+6) = o when x lies b/w ......
so x = -1 neglecting x2 -10x+6 as its root does not belong to (-√2 , 1/3)

isn't it plus or minus 1/2 ? o.O

i am also getting x = -1 by calculating this.

the right answer is plus minus 1/2 @ bhavya :)

x=0 is also a solution. It's quite obvious by hit-and-trial.

Here it is

  • -2
There will be three solutions
Just check it

Note : do not cut "x" because it variable, there can be more roots and any value of "x" would be possible if u cut "x". But u can cut "2" because it is constant
