Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. sin⁡−132=π3\sin^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{\pi}{3} and tan⁡−1(−13)=−π6\tan^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right) = -\frac{\pi}{6}, on the branches around 0.

  2. cos⁡−1(−12)=2π3\cos^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{2\pi}{3} and cot⁡−1(−1)=3π4\cot^{-1}(-1) = \frac{3\pi}{4}, in (0,π)(0, \pi).
