JEE Main 2021 · 24 Feb · Shift 1, Mathematics question 90

lim⁡n→∞tan⁡{∑r=1ntan⁡−1(11+r+r2)}\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\tan\left\{\sum_{r=1}^n\tan^{-1}\left(\frac1{1+r+r^2}\right)\right\} is equal to _______.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 1

Telescope. tan⁡−111+r(r+1)=tan⁡−1(r+1)−tan⁡−1r\tan^{-1}\frac1{1+r(r+1)}=\tan^{-1}(r+1)-\tan^{-1}r, so the sum tends to π2−π4=π4\frac\pi2-\frac\pi4=\frac\pi4, whose tangent is 1.
