What is the value of \(cosec^{-1}1\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)

If \(\csc y=1\) then \(\sin y=1\). The general solution of \(\sin y=1\) is \(y=\frac{\pi}{2}+2k\pi\) (\(k\in\mathbb{Z}\)). The principal value for \(cosec^{-1}x\) is usually taken in \([ -\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}]\setminus\{0\}\), and the only solution in this interval is \(\frac{\pi}{2}\). Therefore \(cosec^{-1}1=\frac{\pi}{2}\). About distractors: \(0\) is not allowed (\(\csc\) undefined), \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) gives \(\csc=-1\), and at \(\pi\) \(\sin\pi=0\) so \(\csc\) is undefined. Exam tip: convert \(\csc y=\) value to \(\sin y=\) value and then pick the principal value from the defined range.
