Ans. \(\)

\({1\over 2}tan^{-1}x = cos^{-1} (\sqrt {1 +\sqrt{1+x^2}\over 2\sqrt{1+x^2}})\)

\(taking \space LHS, put \space x = tan \theta \)

=> \( cos^{-1} (\sqrt {1 +\sqrt{1+tan^2\theta}\over 2\sqrt{1+tan^2\theta}})\)

=> \( cos^{-1} (\sqrt {1 +\sqrt{sec^2\theta}\over 2\sqrt{sec^2\theta}})\)

=> \( cos^{-1} (\sqrt {1 +{sec\theta}\over 2{sec\theta}})\)

=> \( cos^{-1} ({\sqrt {1 +cos\theta\over 2}})\)

=> \( cos^{-1} ({\sqrt { cos^2{\theta\over 2}}})\)

=> \( cos^{-1} ({ cos{\theta\over 2}})\)

=> \(LHS = {\theta\over 2}\)

\(Taking \space RHS, put \space x = tan\theta \)

=> \({1\over 2} tan^{-1}({tan \theta })\)

=> \(RHS = {{\theta \over 2}}\)

RHS = LHS 

Hence Proved
