Question 4.
Verify that xy = aex + be-x + x2 is implicit or explicit is a solution of the corresponding differential equation \(x \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}-x y+x^2-2\) = 0
Solution:
Given Equation is xy = aex + be-x + x2 ⇒ y = \(a \frac{e^x}{x}+b \frac{e^{-x}}{x}+x\).
This in the form of y = f(x)
∴ It is explicit:
Given D.E is \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}-x y+x^2-2=0\) = 0
Also xy = aex + be-x + x2 ……….(1)
Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
\(x \frac{d y}{d x}+y \cdot 1=a \frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x\right)+b \frac{d}{d x} \cdot\left(e^{-x}\right)+\frac{d}{d x}\left(x^2\right)\)
⇒ \(x \frac{d y}{d x}+y=a e^x-b e^{-x}+2 x\)
Also Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
\(x \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+\frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{d y}{d x}=a e^x+b e^{-x}+2\)
⇒ \(x \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}=a e^x+b e^{-x}+2\) ……(2)
Now, we have to prove \(x \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}-x y+x^2-2=0\) = 0
L.H.S = \(x \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}-x y+x^2-2\)
= aex + be-x + 2 – (aex + be-x + x2) + x2 – 2 [using (1) and (2)]
= aex + be-x + 2 – aex – be-x – x2 + x2 – 2 = 0 = R.H.S.
Hence verified.

Question 5.
Verify that y = ex (acosx + bsinx) is implicit or explicit is a solution of the corresponding differential equation \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-2 \frac{d y}{d x}+2 y=0\)
Solution:
The given solution y = ex (acosx + bsinx) is in the form y = f(x) and hence it is explicit.
Given D.E is \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-2 \frac{d y}{d x}+2 y=0\). Also, y = ex(a cos x + b sin x) ……(1)
Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
y = ex(a cosx + b sin x) = aex cos x + bex sin x
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=a \frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x \cos x\right)+b \frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x \sin x\right)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=a\left(e^x \cos x-e^x \sin x\right)+b\left(e^x \sin x+e^x \cos x\right)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=(a+b) e^x \cos x+(b-a) e^x \sin x\) ……..(2)
Again, Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
\(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=(a+b) \frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x \cos x\right)+(b-a) \frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x \sin x\right)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=(a+b) \cdot\left(e^x \cos x-e^x \sin x\right)+(b-a)\left(e^x \sin x+e^x \cos x\right)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=e^x[(a+b)(\cos x-\sin x)+(b-a)(\sin x+\cos x)]\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=e^x[a \cos x-a \sin x+b \cos x-b \sin x+b \sin x+b \cos x-a \sin x-a \cos x]\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=2 e^x(b \cos x-a \sin x)\) …………(3)
Now, we have to prove \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-2 \frac{d y}{d x}+2 y=0\) L.H.S = \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-2 \frac{d y}{d x}+2 y\)
= 2ex(b cos x – a sin x) – 2[(a + b)ex cos x + (b – a)ex sinx] + 2ex(a cos x + b sin x) [using (1), (2) and (2)]
= ex[(2b cos x – 2a sin x) – (2a cos x – 2b cos x) – (2b sin x – 2a sin x) + (2a cos x + 2b sin x)]
= ex[2b cos x – 2a sin x – 2a cos x – 2b cos x – 2b sin x + 2a sin x + 2a cos x + 2b sin x]
= ex[0] = 0 = R.H.S
Thus, the given function is a solution of the corresponding differential equation.
Question 6.
Verify that y = xsin 3x is implicit or explicit is a solution of the corresponding differential equation \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+9 y-6 \cos 3 x\) = 0
Solution:
The given solution y = x sin3x is in the form y = f(x) and hence it is explicit.
Given D.E is \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+9 y-6 \cos 3 x\)
Also, y = x sin 3x ………………….(1)
Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{d}{d x}(x \sin 3 x)=\sin 3 x+x \cos 3 x(3)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\sin 3 x+3 x \cos 3 x\)
Again, Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get
\(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\frac{d}{d x}(\sin 3 x)+3 \frac{d}{d x}(x \cos 3 x)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=3 \cos 3 x+3[\cos 3 x+x(-\sin 3 x) \cdot 3]\)
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=6 \cos 3 x-9 x \sin 3 x\) ……………..(2)
Now, we have \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+9 y-6 \cos 3 x=0\)
L.H.S. = \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+9 y-6 \cos 3 x\)
= (6 cos 3x – 9x sin 3x) + 9x sin 3x – 6 cos 3x = 0 = RHS [using (1) and (2)]
Hence verified.

Question 7.
Verify that x2 = 2y2log y is implicit or explicit is a solution of the corresponding differential equation \(\left(x^2+y^2\right) \frac{d y}{d x}-x y=0\).
Solution:
The given solution is in the form x = f(y) and hence it is explicit.
Given D.E is \(\left(x^2+y^2\right) \frac{d y}{d x}-x y=0\) Also, x2 = 2y2 log y ………..(1)
⇒ \(x=\frac{d y}{d x}(2 y \log y+y) \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x}{y(1+2 \log y)}\) ……….(2)
Now, we have to prove \(\left(x^2+y^2\right) \frac{d y}{d x}-x y=0\)
L.H.S = \(\left(x^2+y^2\right) \frac{d y}{d x}-x y=0\) = (2y2log y + y2).\(\frac{x}{y(1+2 \log y)}\) – xy [using (1) and (2)]
= y2(1 + 2 log y).\(\frac{x}{y(1+2 \log y)}\) – xy = xy – xy = 0 = RHS
Question 8.
Find the general solution of the differential equation \(\frac{d y}{d x}+\sqrt{\frac{1-y^2}{1-x^2}}=0\)
Solution:
Given D.E is \(\frac{d y}{d x}+\sqrt{\frac{1-y^2}{1-x^2}}=0 \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=-\frac{\sqrt{1-y^2}}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{\sqrt{1-y^2}}=-\frac{d x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\)
Integrating both sides, we get sin-1y = -sin-1x + C ⇒ sin-1x + sin-1y = C

II.
Question 1.
Find the equation of the curve passing through the point (0, \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)) whose differential equation is sin x cos y dx + cos x sin y dy = 0.
Solution:
Given D.E is sin x cos ydx + cos xsin ysy = 0 ⇒ \(\frac{\sin x \cos y d x+\cos x \sin y d y}{\cos x \cos y}=0\)
⇒ tan xdx + tan ydy = 0 ⇒ log(sec x)+log(sec y) = logC
⇒ log(secx sec y)=log C ⇒ secx. secy = C
The curve passes through the point (0, \(\frac{\pi}{4}\))
⇒ 1 x \(\sqrt{2}\) = C ⇒ C = \(\sqrt{2}\) ⇒ sec x sec y = \(\sqrt{2}\) ⇒ sec x.\(\frac{1}{\cos y}=\sqrt{2}\) ⇒ cos y = \(\frac{\sec x}{\sqrt{2}}\)
The equation of the curve is sec x. sec y = \(\sqrt{2}\)
Question 2.
Find the particular solution of the differential equation
(1 + e2x)dy + (1 + y2)exdx = 0, given that y = 1 when x = 0.
Solution:
Given D.E is (1 + e2x)dy + (1 + y2)exdx = 0 ⇒ \(\frac{d y}{1+y^2}+\frac{e^x}{1+e^{2 x}} d x=0\)
Integrating both sides, we get \(\tan ^{-1} y+\int \frac{e^x d x}{1+e^{2 x}}=C\) ….(1)
Let ex = t ⇒ e2x = t2
\(\frac{d}{d x}\left(e^x\right)=\frac{d t}{d x} \Rightarrow e^x=\frac{d t}{d x} \Rightarrow e^x=\frac{d t}{d x} \Rightarrow e^x d x=d t\)
Substituting this value in equation (1), we get
\(\tan ^{-1} y+\int \frac{d t}{1+t^2}=C \Rightarrow \tan ^{-1} y+\tan ^{-1} t=C \Rightarrow \tan ^{-1} y+\tan ^{-1}\left(e^x\right)=C\)
We have x = 0 at y = 1
Hence, tan-1 1 + tan-11 = C ⇒ \frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\pi}{4}=C \Rightarrow C=\frac{\pi}{2}\(\)
Thus, tan-1y + tan-1(ex) = \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)

Question 3.
Solve the differential equation \(y e^{\frac{x}{y}} d x=\left(x e^{\frac{x}{y}}+y^2\right) d y\) (y ≠ 0)
Solution:

Integrating both sides, we get x = y + C ⇒ \(e^{\frac{x}{y}}\) = y + C
Question 4.
Solve the differential equation \(\left[\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}}\right] \frac{d x}{d y}=1\) (x ≠ 0)
Solution:
Given D.E is \(\left[\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}}\right] \frac{d x}{d y}=1 \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}}=\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}\)
This equation is a linear differential equation of the form
\(\frac{d y}{d x}\) + Py = Q where P = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\) and Q = \(\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}\)
Now, IF = \(e^{\int P d x}=e^{\int \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} d x}=e^{2 \sqrt{x}}\)
The general solution of the given D.E is given by, y(IF) = ∫(Q × IF) + C
⇒ \(y e^{2 \sqrt{x}}=\int\left(\frac{e^{-2 \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}} x e^{2 \sqrt{x}}\right) d x+C \Rightarrow y e^{2 \sqrt{x}}=\int \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} d x+C \Rightarrow y e^{2 \sqrt{x}}=2 \sqrt{x}+C\)

Question 5.
Find a particular solution of the differential equation \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) + y cot x = 4xcosecx (x ≠ 0), given that y = 0 when x = \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
Solution:
Given D.E is \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) + y cot x = 4x cosecx
This equation is a linear differential equation of the form \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) + Py = Q
where P = cot x and Q = 4xcosecx
Now, IF = \(\mathrm{e}^{\int \mathrm{Pdx}}=\mathrm{e}^{\int \cot \mathrm{xdx}}=\mathrm{e}^{\log |\sin \mathrm{x}|}=\sin \mathrm{x}\)
The general solution of the given D.E is given by,
y(IF) = \(\int(Q \times I F) d x+C \Rightarrow y \sin x=\int(4 x {cosec} x \cdot \sin x) d x+C\)
\(y \sin x=4 \int x d x+C \Rightarrow y \sin x=4 \cdot \frac{x^2}{2}+C \Rightarrow y \sin x=2 x^2+C\)
We have x = \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) at y = 0
∴ \(2 \times \frac{\pi^2}{4}+C \Rightarrow C=-\frac{\pi^2}{2}\). Thus, y sinx = \(2x^2-\frac{\pi^2}{2}\), sin x ≠ 0

Question 1.
Prove that x2 – y2 = c (x2 + y2)2 is the general solution of differential equation (x3 – 3xy2) dx = (y3 – 3x2y) dy, where c is a parameter.
Solution:
(x3 – 3xy2) dx = (y3 – 3x2y) dy ⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x^3-3 x y^2}{y^3-3 x^2 y}\) …(1)
This is a homogenous equation, to simplify it,
Let y = vx …………(2)



Taking square root on both sides
⇒ (x2 – y2) = C2(x2 + y2)2 ⇒ (x2 – y2) = k(x2 + y2)2 where, k = C2

Question 2.
Show that the general solution of the differential equation \(\frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{y^2+y+1}{x^2+x+1}=0\) is given by (x + y + 1) = A (1 – x – y – 2xy), where A is parameter.
Solution:


⇒ \(2 \sqrt{3}(x+y+1)=C_1(2-4 x y-2 x-2 y) \Rightarrow 2 \sqrt{3}(x+y+1)=C_1 \times 2(1-2 x y-x-y)\)
⇒ \(\sqrt{3}(x+y+1)=C_1(1-x-y-2 x y)\)
⇒ \((x+y+1)=\frac{C_1}{\sqrt{3}}(1-x-y-2 x y) \Rightarrow(x+y+1)=A(1-x-y-2 x y)\) [Where A = \(\frac{C_1}{\sqrt{3}}\)]
Question 3.
Find a particular solution of the differential equation (x – y) (dx + dy) = dx – dy, given that y = -1, when x = 0. (Hint: put x – y = t)
Solution:
GivenD.E is (x – y)(dx + dy) = (dx – dy) ⇒ (x – y + 1)dy = (1 – x + y)dx
⇒ \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{1-x+y}{x-y+1} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{1-(x-y)}{1+(x-y)}\) ……………(1)
Let x – y = t ……..(2)
⇒ \(\frac{d}{d x}(x-y)=\frac{d t}{d x} \Rightarrow 1-\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{d t}{d x} \Rightarrow 1-\frac{d t}{d x}=\frac{d y}{d x}\) ……..(3)
Using (1), (2) and (3)
⇒ \(1-\frac{\mathrm{dt}}{\mathrm{dx}}=\frac{1-\mathrm{t}}{1+\mathrm{t}} \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{dt}}{\mathrm{dx}}=1-\left(\frac{1-\mathrm{t}}{1+\mathrm{t}}\right)\)
⇒ \(\frac{d t}{d x}=\frac{(1+t)-(1-t)}{1+t} \Rightarrow \frac{d t}{d x}=\frac{2 t}{1+t}\)
⇒ \(\left(\frac{1+t}{t}\right) d t=2 d x \Rightarrow\left(1+\frac{1}{t}\right) d t=2 d x\)
Integrating both sides, we get ⇒ t + log|t| = 2x + C
⇒ (x – y) + log |x – y| = 2x + C ⇒ log|x – y| = x + y + C
We have x = 0 at y = -1
⇒ log 1 = 0 – 1 + C ⇒ C = 1 ⇒ log|x – y| = x + y + 1
