solve for x = 0 a n d x → ∞ . Get the solution
This solution is incomplete. How did you know that its minimum occurs at x = 0 ? You should also mention that tan − 1 ( x ) is an increasing function.
this one is really interesting and easy . first find the minimum value of the expression and this will be when x is zero. and since a root three term is there in the denominator and 1 in the numerator. dr grows faster than the nr so it will always tend to approach the value of 1.

For x 2 ≥ 0 , we can see that x 2 + 3 x 2 + 1 = 1 + x 2 + 3 3 − 1 is decreasing, ranging from 3 1 at x = 0 and approaching 1 as x → ∞ . Since tan − 1 is an increasing function, with tan − 1 ( 3 1 ) = 6 π and tan − 1 ( 1 ) = 4 π , the range is [ 6 π , 4 π ) .
