    \[{{\tan }^{-1}}x+{{\cot }^{-1}}(x+1)=\]

    A) \[{{\tan }^{-1}}({{x}^{2}}+1)\]

    B) \[{{\tan }^{-1}}({{x}^{2}}+x)\]

    C) \[{{\tan }^{-1}}(x+1)\]

    D) \[{{\tan }^{-1}}({{x}^{2}}+x+1)\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

      \[{{\tan }^{-1}}x+{{\cot }^{-1}}(x+1)={{\tan }^{-1}}x+{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{1}{x+1} \right)\] \[={{\tan }^{-1}}\,\left[ \frac{x+\frac{1}{x+1}}{1-\frac{x}{x+1}} \right]={{\tan }^{-1}}\,({{x}^{2}}+x+1)\].
