TGM Original Questions
  1. Express \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}\left[ {{\tan }^{-1}}(xy) \right]\) in terms of \(x\), \(y\) and \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}\).
    It is given that \(x\) and \(y\) satisfy the equation:
    \({{\tan }^{-1}}x+{{\tan }^{-1}}y+{{\tan }^{-1}}(xy)=\frac{7}{12}\pi \).
  2. Find the value of \(y\) when \(x=1\).
  3. Show that, when \(x=1\), \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}=-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}\).
