A function $f:A\rightarrow B$ defined as $f(x)=2x$ is both one-one and onto. If $A=\{1,2,3,4\}$, then find the set $B$.
OR
Evaluate : $\sin^{-1}(\sin\frac{3\pi}{4})+\cos^{-1}(\cos\frac{3\pi}{4})+\tan^{-1}(1)$
Explanation
To find the set $B$, we need to determine the range of the function $f$.Reasoning:Since the function $f: A \rightarrow B$ is given to be onto (surjective), every element in the codomain ($B$) must have a corresponding element in the domain ($A$). This implies that the set $B$ is equal to the range of $f$.

Calculation:

Given the domain $A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$ and the rule $f(x) = 2x$, we calculate the image for each element in $A$:
For $x = 1$: $f(1) = 2(1) = 2$
For $x = 2$: $f(2) = 2(2) = 4$
For $x = 3$: $f(3) = 2(3) = 6$
For $x = 4$: $f(4) = 2(4) = 8$
Hence Collecting these values gives us the set $B$.$$B = \{2, 4, 6, 8\}$$

Step-by-Step Solution

Part 1: Finding set B

Given $f(x) = 2x$ and $A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$, since $f$ is onto, $B$ is the range of $f$.

Calculate $f(x)$ for each element in $A$:

  • $f(1) = 2(1) = 2$
  • $f(2) = 2(2) = 4$
  • $f(3) = 2(3) = 6$
  • $f(4) = 2(4) = 8$

Therefore, $B = \{2, 4, 6, 8\}$.

Part 2: Evaluating the expression

Evaluate $\sin^{-1}(\sin\frac{3\pi}{4})+\cos^{-1}(\cos\frac{3\pi}{4})+\tan^{-1}(1)$

First, simplify $\sin^{-1}(\sin\frac{3\pi}{4})$ and $\cos^{-1}(\cos\frac{3\pi}{4})$:

  • $\sin\frac{3\pi}{4} = \sin(\pi - \frac{\pi}{4}) = \sin\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • So, $\sin^{-1}(\sin\frac{3\pi}{4}) = \sin^{-1}(\sin\frac{\pi}{4}) = \frac{\pi}{4}$
  • $\cos\frac{3\pi}{4} = \cos(\pi - \frac{\pi}{4}) = -\cos\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • So, $\cos^{-1}(\cos\frac{3\pi}{4}) = \cos^{-1}(-\cos\frac{\pi}{4}) = \pi - \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{3\pi}{4}$
  • $\tan^{-1}(1) = \frac{\pi}{4}$

Now, add the results:

$\frac{\pi}{4} + \frac{3\pi}{4} + \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{5\pi}{4}$

Correct Answer: B = {2, 4, 6, 8} OR 5π/4
