Answer: $\frac{2\pi }{3}$
Hint: The range of the principal value of $\sec ^{-1} is \left [ 0,\pi \right ]-\left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \}$
Given: $\sec ^{-1}\left ( 2\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right ) \right )$
Solution: We know that $\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )= -1$
$\therefore 2\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )\Rightarrow 2\times -1$
$2\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right )\Rightarrow -2$
By substituting these values in $\sec ^{-1}\left ( 2\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right ) \right )$ ,we get
$\sec ^{-1}\left ( -2 \right )$
Let , $y= \sec ^{-1}\left ( -2 \right )$
$\sec \left ( y \right )= -2$
$-\sec\left ( \frac{\pi }{3} \right )= -2$
$\Rightarrow \sec\left ( \pi - \frac{\pi }{3} \right )$
$\Rightarrow \sec\left ( \frac{2\pi }{3} \right )$
$\therefore$ The range of the principal value of $\sec ^{-1} is \left [ 0,\pi \right ]-\left \{ \frac{\pi }{2} \right \} and\, \sec \left ( \frac{2\pi }{3} \right )\! =\! -2$
$\therefore$ The principal value of $\sec ^{-1}\left ( 2\tan \left ( \frac{3\pi }{4} \right ) \right )\, is\, \frac{2\pi }{3}$
