Evaluate each of the following:
(i) $\cot ^{-1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}-\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}(-2)+\sec ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$
(ii) $\cot ^{-1}\left\{2 \cos \left(\sin ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\right\}$

(iv) $\tan ^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)+\cot ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)+\tan ^{-1}\left(\sin \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\right)$
(i)
$\cot ^{-1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}-\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}(-2)+\sec ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)=\cot ^{-1}\left(\cot \frac{\pi}{3}\right)-\operatorname{cosec}^{-1}\left[\operatorname{cosec}\left(-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\right]+\sec ^{-1}\left(\sec \frac{\pi}{6}\right)$
$=\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{6}$
$=\frac{2 \pi}{3}$
(ii)
$\cot ^{-1}\left\{2 \cos \left(\sin ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\right\}=\cot ^{-1}\left\{2 \cos \left[\sin ^{-1}\left(\sin \frac{\pi}{3}\right)\right]\right\}$
$=\cot ^{-1}\left(2 \cos \frac{\pi}{3}\right)$
$=\cot ^{-1}\left(2 \times \frac{1}{2}\right)$
$=\cot ^{-1}(1)$
$=\cot ^{-1}\left(\tan \frac{\pi}{4}\right)$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}$
(iii)
$=-\frac{\pi}{3}+2 \times \frac{3 \pi}{4}$

$=\frac{7 \pi}{6}$
(iv)
