Solution: Solution:
Let q = cosec–1 (n 2 1)(n 2 2n 2) Let tr denote the rth term of the series 3, 7, 13, 21, . and
S = 3 + 7 + 13 + 21 + . . . + tn
cosec2 = (n2 + 1) (n2 + 2n + 2)
Also S = 3 + 7 + 13 + . . . + tn–1 + tn
= (n2 + 1)2 + 2n (n2 + 1) + n2 + 1 = (n2 + n + 1)2 + 1
Subtracting we get
cot2 = (n2 + n + 1)2
= 3 + 4 + 6 + . . . + 2n – tn

Let Tr = cot–1 (r2 + r + 1) = tan–1 2
= tan–1 (n + 1) – tan–1 n r r 1
Thus, sum n terms of the given series r 1 r
–1 –1 –1
= (tan 2 – tan 1) + (tan 3 – tan 2) + (tan 4 – –1 –1 = tan–1 1 r(r 1) = tan–1 (r + 1) – tan–1 r
tan–1 3) + . . . + (tan–1 (n+1) – tan–1 n)
Thus, the sum of the first n terms of the given series is
tan 1 (n 1) / 4 n 11
tan–1 (n + 1) – tan–1 (A) = tan–1 1 1(n 1)

LIMIT
1. DEFINITION 3. EXISTENCE OF LIMIT
Let the function y = f(x) be defined in a certain Let f(x) has the indeterminate form at x = a then the
neighbor hood of a point x = a. The function y = f(x) limit of a function at a point a exists only when its
left hand limit and right hand limit at that point are
approaches the limit L (y L) as x approaches a (x
equal and unique. Thus
a), if for every positive number h arbitrarily small,
we are able to indicate k > 0 such that for all x, lim f(x) exists
x a
different from a and satisfying the inequality.
lim– f(x) = lim f(x) = unique
|x–a|<h x a x a
we have the inequality i.e. RHL = LHL = unique value
| f(x) – L | < k
then lim f(x) = L Example-1

If f(x) L as x a, this is illustrated on the graph x→ x
of the function y = f(x) as above. Since from the Solution .: As 0 ln x x (x > 1)
inequality |x – a| < h there follows the inequality
n x 1
|f(x) – L| < k, this means that for all points x that are 0 (x > 1)
