If sin⁻¹(1−x) − 2 sin⁻¹x = π/2, then x equals:

  • A. 0
  • B. 1/2
  • C. 0 or 1/2
  • D. −1/2

Answer: A) 0

Explanation: sin⁻¹(1−x) = π/2 + 2 sin⁻¹x. Taking sine: 1−x = cos(2 sin⁻¹x) = 1 − 2x², so 2x² − x = 0 and x = 0 or 1/2. Substituting back, only x = 0 satisfies the equation (x = 1/2 gives −π/6), so x = 0.
