Answer:

Option b is correct.

Exact value of  [tex]\sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})[/tex] is; pi divide by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the exact value of [tex]\sin^{-1}[/tex] the quantity square root of three divided by two.

square root of three means [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Two means 2

The quantity square root of three divided by 2 is; [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

Given: [tex]\sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})[/tex]

Let  [tex]\sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})[/tex] = y

Taking sine both sides we get;

[tex]\sin(\sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})) = \sin y[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\sin y = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

We know that the value of  [tex]\sin 60^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sin y = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\sin 60^{\circ}[/tex]

On comparing we have;

[tex]y = 60^{\circ} =\frac{\pi}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the exact value of [tex]\sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})[/tex] is; [tex]\frac{\pi}{3}[/tex]
