Inverse Trigonometry · Principal value ranges

Let α=3sin⁡−1(611)\alpha = 3\sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{6}{11}\right) and β=3cos⁡−1(49)\beta = 3\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac49\right), where inverse trigonometric functions take only the principal values.

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: cos⁡(α+β)>0\cos(\alpha + \beta) > 0

Statement II: cos⁡(α)<0\cos(\alpha) < 0

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. (1)Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. (2)Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. (3)Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. (4)Statement I is false but Statement II is true
