Lets \(s = \sin^{-1}(\frac{2x}{1+x^2})\) and \(t = \cos^{-1}(\frac{1-x^2}{1+x^2})\)
We have to find out
\(\frac{ds}{dt}\)
Putting x = tan θ, we get
\(s = \sin^{-1}[\frac{2 \tan θ}{1+\tan^2 θ}] = \sin^{-1}(\sin 2θ) = 2θ = 2 \tan^{-1} x\)
∴ \(\frac{ds}{dx} = \frac{2}{1+x^2}\) and \(t = \cos^{-1}(\frac{1-x^2}{1+x^2}) = \cos^{-1}(\frac{1-\tan^2 θ}{1+\tan^2 θ})\)
= cos-1(cos 2θ) = 2θ = 2 tan-1x
∴ \(\frac{dt}{dx} = \frac{2}{1+x^2}\)
∴ \(\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{ds/dx}{dt/dx} = \frac{2}{1+x^2} \times \frac{1+x^2}{2} = 1\)
Hence option 1 is correct
