Solution:
Let a=tan1x then from the properties of inverse trigonometry,
α=tan1x
tanα=x
sin(tan1x)=sinα
Now we know from the definition from inverse function as tana=x so it can be interpreted as,
tanα=x
tanα=x1=perependicularBase
Use Pythagorean formula to find he hypotenuse as,
(Hypotenuse)2=(Perpendicular)2+(Base)2
H2=x2+1
H=x2+1
Use the above result in the formula of sin function as,
sin(tan1x)=sinα
sinα=Perependicularhypotenuse
sin(tan1x)=xx2+1
