The smallest positive root of the equation tan(x) - x = 0 lies in

  • 0, π2

  • π2, π

  • π, 3π2

  • 3π2, 2π


C.

π, 3π2

Given equation is,

tan(x) - x = 0

 tanx = x

Solutions are abscissae of points of intersection of the curves y = tan(x) and y = x. From the figure, it is clearly visible that solution lies in π, 3π2.
