Question:
A possible value of $\tan \left(\frac{1}{4} \sin ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{63}}{8}\right)$ is :
Correct Option: 1
Solution:
Let $\frac{1}{4} \sin ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{63}}{8}=\theta$
$\sin 4 \theta=\frac{\sqrt{63}}{8}$
$\cos 4 \theta=\frac{1}{8}$
$2 \cos ^{2} 2 \theta-1=\frac{1}{8}$
$\cos ^{2} 2 \theta=\frac{9}{16}$
$\cos 2 \theta=\frac{3}{4}$
$2 \cos ^{2} \theta-1=\frac{3}{4}$
$\cos ^{2} \theta=\frac{7}{8}$
$\cos \theta=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2 \sqrt{2}}$
$\tan \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}}$
