For x∈Rx \in R,

tan⁡  x+12  tan⁡  x2  +  122  tan⁡  x22+…+12n−1  tan⁡  (x2n−1)\tan \,\,x + \frac{1}{2}\,\,\tan \,\,\frac{x}{2}\,\, + \,\,\frac{1}{{{2^2}}}\,\,\tan \,\,\frac{x}{{{2^2}}} + \ldots + \frac{1}{{{2^{n - 1}}}}\,\,\tan \,\,\left( {\frac{x}{{{2^{n - 1}}}}} \right) is equal to
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
12n−1  cot⁡  (x2n−1)−2cot⁡  2x\frac{1}{{{2^{n - 1}}}}\,\,\cot \,\,\left( {\frac{x}{{{2^{n - 1}}}}} \right) - 2\cot \,\,2x
Option B is correct because by using the identity tan⁡x=cot⁡x−2cot⁡2x\tan x = \cot x - 2\cot 2x repeatedly, we can express the given sum as a telescoping series, which simplifies to the given expression.
