Find an identity expressing \(\tan \left(\sin ^{-1} t\right)\) as a nice function of \(t\).

Short Answer

Expert verified
The identity expressing \(\tan\left(\sin^{-1} t\right)\) as a function of \(t\) is: \[\tan\left(\sin^{-1} t\right) = \frac{t}{\sqrt{1 - t^2}}\]

Step by step solution

01

Express the angle in terms of a right triangle

Let us consider a right triangle ABC, where angle B = 90 degrees, angle A = \(\sin^{-1} t\), and angle C is the remaining angle. According to the definition of sine, we have \(\sin A = \frac{BC}{AC} = t\). Let's say BC = t, and AC = 1.
02

Find the length of side AB

Using Pythagorean theorem, \[\begin{aligned} AB^2 &= AC^2 - BC^2 \\\\ AB^2 &= 1^2 - t^2 \\\\ AB &= \sqrt{1 - t^2} \end{aligned}\]
03

Calculate the tangent of angle A

Now, we'll find the tangent of angle A by using the definition of tangent in a right triangle. \[\begin{aligned} \tan A &= \frac{BC}{AB} \\\\ &= \frac{t}{\sqrt{1 - t^2}} \end{aligned}\]
04

Substitute the expression for angle in the given function

Now that we have found the tangent for angle A (which equals \(\sin^{-1} t\)), we can easily substitute it in the given expression: \[\tan\left(\sin^{-1} t\right) = \frac{t}{\sqrt{1 - t^2}}\] Therefore, the identity expressing \(\tan\left(\sin^{-1} t\right)\) as a function of \(t\) is: \[\tan\left(\sin^{-1} t\right) = \frac{t}{\sqrt{1 - t^2}}\]
