Correct answer: C

  1. Let θ=tan⁡−1(43).\theta=\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{4}{3}\right).θ=tan−1(34​). Since inverse trigonometric functions take principal values, we have θ∈(−π2,π2),\theta \in \left(-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}\right),θ∈(−2π​,2π​), and because 43>0\frac{4}{3}>034​>0, therefore θ\thetaθ is in the first quadrant.

  2. Now use the right triangle corresponding to tan⁡θ=43.\tan\theta=\frac{4}{3}.tanθ=34​. So we can take:

    • opposite side =4=4=4
    • adjacent side =3=3=3
    • hypotenuse =5=5=5

    Hence, sin⁡θ=45,cos⁡θ=35.\sin\theta=\frac{4}{5}, \qquad \cos\theta=\frac{3}{5}.sinθ=54​,cosθ=53​.

  3. Substitute into the given expression inside cos⁡−1\cos^{-1}cos−1: 310cos⁡(tan⁡−143)+25sin⁡(tan⁡−143)\frac{3}{10}\cos\left(\tan^{-1}\frac{4}{3}\right)+\frac{2}{5}\sin\left(\tan^{-1}\frac{4}{3}\right)103​cos(tan−134​)+52​sin(tan−134​) =310⋅35+25⋅45.=\frac{3}{10}\cdot \frac{3}{5}+\frac{2}{5}\cdot \frac{4}{5}.=103​⋅53​+52​⋅54​.

  4. Simplify: =950+825=\frac{9}{50}+\frac{8}{25}=509​+258​ =950+1650=\frac{9}{50}+\frac{16}{50}=509​+5016​ =2550=12.=\frac{25}{50}=\frac{1}{2}.=5025​=21​.

  5. Therefore the whole expression becomes cos⁡−1(12).\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right).cos−1(21​).

    Since principal value range of cos⁡−1x\cos^{-1}xcos−1x is [0,π][0,\pi][0,π], cos⁡−1(12)=π3.\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=\frac{\pi}{3}.cos−1(21​)=3π​.

  6. So the correct option is π3.\boxed{\frac{\pi}{3}}.3π​​.
