Answer: \mathrm{x}=\mathrm{n} \pi+\frac{\pi}{4}, \mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{Z}

Given: 2 \tan ^{-1}(\sin x)=\tan ^{-1}(2 \sec x), x \neq \frac{\pi}{2}

Hint: Using 2 \tan ^{-1}(x)=\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 x}{1-x^{2}}\right)

Solution: We have,

                2 \tan ^{-1}(\sin x)=\tan ^{-1}(2 \sec x)

We know that

          2 \tan ^{-1}(x)=\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 x}{1-x^{2}}\right)

          \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 \sin x}{1-\sin ^{2} x}\right)=\tan ^{-1}(2 \sec x) \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{2 \sin x}{\cos ^{2} x}=2 \sec x \end{aligned}                                    \left[1-\sin ^{2} x=\cos ^{2} x\right]

           \Rightarrow \frac{\sin x}{\cos x \cos x}=\frac{1}{\cos x}                                                                    \left[\sec x=\frac{1}{\cos x}\right]

            \Rightarrow \tan x=1                                                                                       \left[\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}=\tan x\right]

             \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow x=\tan ^{-1}(1) \\ &\Rightarrow x=\frac{\pi}{4} \end{aligned}                                                                                \left[\tan ^{-1}(1)=\frac{\pi}{4}\right]

Hence the principal value of x=n \pi+\frac{\pi}{4}, n \in Z
