Question
**Problem:**

Find the exact value of the expression:

\[
\cos\left(\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + \cot^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)\right)
\]

**Solution box:**

**Explanation:**

The expression involves finding the cosine of the sum of two inverse trigonometric functions: \(\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\) and \(\cot^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)\).

The answer is written as \(32\), although it seems incorrect for this context, as the value of such an expression should lie between -1 and 1. It could be a placeholder or a calculation error.
