Miscellaneous Exercise

1. For each of the differential equations given below, indicate its order and degree (if defined).

(i)$\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{+5x}{{\left( \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{-6y=logx}$ 

Ans: The given differential equation is:

 $\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+5x{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}^{2}}-6y-\log x=0$ 

The highest order derivative in the equation is of the term $\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}$, thus the order of the equation is $\text{2}$ and its highest power is $\text{1}$. Therefore its degree is $\text{1}$.


(ii)${{\left( \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} \right)}^{3}}-4{{\left( \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} \right)}^{2}}\text{+7y=sin}\,\text{x}$ 

Ans: The given differential equation is:

 ${{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}^{3}}-4{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}^{2}}+7y-\sin x=0$ 

The highest order derivative in the equation is of the term ${{\left( \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} \right)}^{3}}$, thus the order of the equation is $1$ and its highest power is $3$. Therefore its degree is $3$.


(iii)$\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{4}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{4}}}}\text{-sin}\left( \frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{3}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{3}}}} \right)\text{=0}$ 

Ans: The given differential equation is:

 $\frac{{{d}^{4}}y}{d{{x}^{4}}}-\sin \left( \frac{{{d}^{3}}y}{d{{x}^{3}}} \right)=0$ 

The highest order derivative in the equation is of the term $\frac{{{\text{d}}^{4}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{4}}}$, thus the order of the equation is $4$.

As the differential equation is not polynomial in its derivative, therefore its degree is not defined.


2. For each of the exercises given below, verify that the given function (implicit or explicit) is a solution of the corresponding differential equation.

  1. $\text{xy=a}{{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{+b}{{\text{e}}^{\text{-x}}}\text{+}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\,\,\,\text{:x}\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{+2}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{-xy+}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{-2=0}$ 

Ans: The given function is:
$xy=a{{e}^{x}}+b{{e}^{-x}}+{{x}^{2}}$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow y+x\frac{dy}{dx}=a{{e}^{x}}-b{{e}^{-x}}+2x$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}+x\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+\frac{dy}{dx}=a{{e}^{x}}+b{{e}^{-x}}+2$ 

$\Rightarrow x\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+2\frac{dy}{dx}=a{{e}^{x}}+b{{e}^{-x}}+2$ ……(1)

The given differential equation is:
$x\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+2\frac{dy}{dx}-xy+{{x}^{2}}-2=0$ 

Solving LHS:

Substitute $\text{x}\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{+2}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ from the result (1) and $\text{xy}$:

$\Rightarrow \left( x\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+2\frac{dy}{dx} \right)-xy+{{x}^{2}}-2$ 

$\Rightarrow \left( a{{e}^{x}}+b{{e}^{-x}}+2 \right)-\left( a{{e}^{x}}+b{{e}^{-x}}+{{x}^{2}} \right)+{{x}^{2}}-2$ 

$\Rightarrow 2-{{x}^{2}}+{{x}^{2}}-2$ 

$\Rightarrow 0$ 

Thus LHS=RHS, the given function is the solution of the given differential equation. 

  1. $\text{y=}{{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\left( \text{acosx+bsinx} \right)\,\,\text{:}\,\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{-2}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+2y=0}$ 

Ans: The given function is:
$y={{e}^{x}}\left( a\cos x+b\sin x \right)$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}={{e}^{x}}\left( a\cos x+b\sin x \right)+{{e}^{x}}\left( -a\sin x+b\cos x \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}={{e}^{x}}\left( \left( a+b \right)\cos x+\left( b-a \right)\sin x \right)$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}={{e}^{x}}\left( \left( a+b \right)\cos x+\left( b-a \right)\sin x \right)+{{e}^{x}}\left( -\left( a+b \right)\sin x+\left( b-a \right)\cos x \right)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}={{e}^{x}}\left( \left( a+b+b-a \right)\cos x+\left( b-a-a-b \right)\sin x \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}={{e}^{x}}\left( 2b\cos x-2a\sin x \right)$  

The given differential equation is:
$\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}-2\frac{dy}{dx}+2y=0$ 

Solving LHS:

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{x}}\left( 2b\cos x-2a\sin x \right)-2{{e}^{x}}\left( \left( a+b \right)\cos x+\left( b-a \right)\sin x \right)+2y$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{x}}\left( \left( 2b-2a-2b \right)\cos x+\left( -2a-2b+2a \right)\sin x \right)-2y$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{x}}\left( -2a\cos x-2b\sin x \right)-2y$ 

$\Rightarrow -2{{e}^{x}}\left( a\cos x+b\sin x \right)-2y$

$\Rightarrow 0$ 

Thus LHS=RHS, the given function is the solution of the given differential equation.


  1. $\text{y=x}\,\text{sin3x}\,\,\text{:}\,\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y}}{\text{d}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{+9y-6cos3x=0}$ 

Ans: The given function is:
$y=x\sin 3x$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\sin 3x+3x\cos 3x$ 

Take derivative on both side:

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}=3\cos 3x+3\left( \cos 3x+x\left( -3\sin 3x \right) \right)$

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}=3\cos 3x+3\cos 3x-9x\sin 3x\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}=6\cos 3x-9x\sin 3x\]  

The given differential equation is:
$\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+9y-6\cos 3x=0$ 

Solving LHS:

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}+9y-6\cos 3x$ 

$\Rightarrow \left( 6\cos 3x-9x\sin 3x \right)+9\left( x\sin 3x \right)-6\cos 3x$ 

$\Rightarrow 6\cos 3x-9x\sin 3x+9x\sin 3x-6\cos 3x$ 

$\Rightarrow 0$ 

Thus LHS=RHS, the given function is the solution of the given differential equation. 

  1. ${{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=2}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}\,\text{log y}\,\,\text{:}\left( {{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{-xy=0}$ 

Ans: The given function is:
${{x}^{2}}=2{{y}^{2}}\log y$ 

Take derivative on both side:

\[\Rightarrow 2x=2\left( 2y\log y+{{y}^{2}}\left( \frac{1}{y} \right) \right)\frac{dy}{dx}\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x}{\left( 2y\log y+y \right)}\]

Multiply numerator and denominator by $\text{y}$:

\[\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{xy}{\left( 2{{y}^{2}}\log y+{{y}^{2}} \right)}\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{xy}{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}\]  

The given differential equation is:
$\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)\frac{dy}{dx}-xy=0$ 

Solving LHS:

$\Rightarrow \left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)\frac{dy}{dx}-xy$ 

$\Rightarrow \left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)\left( \frac{xy}{{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}} \right)-xy$ 

$\Rightarrow xy-xy$ 

$\Rightarrow 0$ 

Thus LHS=RHS, the given function is the solution of the given differential equation.


3. Prove that ${{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{-}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=c}{{\left( {{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$  is the general solution of differential equation $\left( {{\text{x}}^{\text{3}}}\text{-3x}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)\text{dx=}\left( {{\text{y}}^{\text{3}}}\text{-3}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y} \right)\text{dy}$ , where $\text{c}$ is a parameter.

 Ans: Given differential equation:

$\left( {{x}^{3}}-3x{{y}^{2}} \right)dx=\left( {{y}^{3}}-3{{x}^{2}}y \right)dy$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{{{x}^{3}}-3x{{y}^{2}}}{{{y}^{3}}-3{{x}^{2}}y}$ 

As it can be seen that this is an homogenous equation. Substitute $\text{y=vx}$:

$\Rightarrow \frac{d\left( vx \right)}{dx}=\frac{{{x}^{3}}-3x{{\left( vx \right)}^{2}}}{{{\left( vx \right)}^{3}}-3{{x}^{2}}\left( vx \right)}$ 

$\Rightarrow v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{{{x}^{3}}\left( 1-3{{v}^{2}} \right)}{{{x}^{3}}\left( {{v}^{3}}-3v \right)}$ 

$\Rightarrow v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1-3{{v}^{2}}}{{{v}^{3}}-3v}$ 

$\Rightarrow x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1-3{{v}^{2}}}{{{v}^{3}}-3v}-v$ 

$\Rightarrow x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1-3{{v}^{2}}-{{v}^{4}}+3{{v}^{2}}}{{{v}^{3}}-3v}$ 

$\Rightarrow x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1-{{v}^{4}}}{{{v}^{3}}-3v}$ 

Separate the differentials:

$\frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}dv=\frac{dx}{x}$ 

Integrate both side:

$\int \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}dv=\int \frac{dx}{x}$ 

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}dv=\log x+\log C$ 

\[\Rightarrow I=\log x+\log C\,\,\left( I=\int \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}dv \right)\] ……(1)

Solving integral $\text{I}$:

\[\Rightarrow I=\int \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}dv\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}=\frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{\left( 1-{{v}^{2}} \right)\left( 1+{{v}^{2}} \right)}\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}=\frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{\left( 1-v \right)\left( 1+v \right)\left( 1+{{v}^{2}} \right)}\] 

Using partial fraction:

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}=\frac{A}{1-v}+\frac{B}{1+v}+\frac{Cv+D}{1+{{v}^{2}}}\] 

Solving for $\text{A,B,C}\,\text{and}\,\text{D}$:

$A=-\frac{1}{2}$ 

$B=\frac{1}{2}$ 

$C=-2$ 

$D=0$ 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{v}^{3}}-3v}{1-{{v}^{4}}}=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{1-v}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{1+v}+\frac{-2v+0}{1+{{v}^{2}}}\] 

$I=-\frac{1}{2}\int \frac{1}{1-v}dv+\frac{1}{2}\int \frac{1}{1+v}dv-\int \frac{2v}{1+{{v}^{2}}}dv$

$I=-\frac{1}{2}\left( -\log \left( 1-v \right) \right)+\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \left( 1+v \right) \right)-\log \left( 1+{{v}^{2}} \right)$ 

\[I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \left( 1-{{v}^{2}} \right) \right)-\frac{2}{2}\log \left( 1+{{v}^{2}} \right)\] 

\[I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{\left( 1-{{v}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( 1+{{v}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)\] 

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{\left( 1-\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}{{{\left( 1+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)\] 

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{{{x}^{2}}\left( {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)\]

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{\left( {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)+\frac{1}{2}\log {{x}^{2}}\] 

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{\left( {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)+\log x\]

Back substitute $\text{I}$ in expression (1):

\[\Rightarrow I=\log x+\log C\,\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\left( \log \frac{\left( {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}} \right)+\log x=\log x+\log C\]

\[\Rightarrow \log \frac{\left( {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}} \right)}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}}=2\log C\] 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}}={{C}^{2}}\] 

\[\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}=c{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}\,\,\left( c={{C}^{2}} \right)\] 

Thus for given differential equation, its general solution is \[{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{-}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=c}{{\left( {{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\].


4. Find the general solution of the differential equation $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+}\sqrt{\frac{\text{1-}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}}{\text{1-}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}}}\text{=0}$.

Ans: The given differential equation is:

 $\frac{dy}{dx}+\sqrt{\frac{1-{{y}^{2}}}{1-{{x}^{2}}}}=0$ 

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\sqrt{\frac{1-{{y}^{2}}}{1-{{x}^{2}}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{\sqrt{1-{{y}^{2}}}}=-\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}}}$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{\sqrt{1-{{y}^{2}}}}=-\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow {{\sin }^{-1}}y=-{{\sin }^{-1}}x+C$

$\Rightarrow {{\sin }^{-1}}y+{{\sin }^{-1}}x=C$ 

Thus the general solution of given differential equation is $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}\text{y+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}\text{x=C}$.


5. Show that the general solution of the differential equation $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+}\frac{{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}\text{+y+1}}{{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{+x+1}}\text{=0}$ is given by $\left( \text{x+y+1} \right)\text{=A}\left( \text{1-x-y-2xy} \right)$  where $\text{A}$ is a parameter.

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}+y+1}{{{x}^{2}}+x+1}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{{{y}^{2}}+y+1}{{{x}^{2}}+x+1}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{{{y}^{2}}+2\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)y+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}+1}{{{x}^{2}}+2\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}+1}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{{{\left( y+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+\frac{3}{4}}{{{\left( x+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+\frac{3}{4}}$   

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{{{\left( y+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+\frac{3}{4}}=-\frac{dx}{{{\left( x+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+\frac{3}{4}}$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{{{\left( y+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}^{2}}}=-\int \frac{dx}{{{\left( x+\frac{1}{2} \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}^{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}{{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{y+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} \right]=-\frac{1}{\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}{{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{x+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} \right]+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\left( {{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{2y+1}{\sqrt{3}} \right]+{{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{2x+1}{\sqrt{3}} \right] \right)=C$ 

$\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{2y+1}{\sqrt{3}} \right]+{{\tan }^{-1}}\left[ \frac{2x+1}{\sqrt{3}} \right]=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}C$ 

Thus the general solution for given differential equation is $\text{ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}\left[ \frac{\text{2y+1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}} \right]\text{+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}\left[ \frac{\text{2x+1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}} \right]\text{=}\frac{\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{2}}\text{C}$.


6.Find the equation of the curve passing through the point $\left( 0,\frac{\pi }{4} \right)$ whose differential equation is $\text{sin}\,\text{x}\,\text{cos}\,\text{ydx+cos}\,\text{x}\,\text{sin}\,\text{ydy=0}$.

Ans: Given differential equation is:

$\sin \,x\,\cos \,ydx+\cos \,x\,\sin \,ydy=0$

$\Rightarrow \sin \,x\,\cos \,ydx+\cos \,x\,\sin \,ydy=0$

Divide both side by $\text{cos}\,\text{x}\,\text{cos}\,\text{y}$:

$\Rightarrow \frac{\sin \,x\,\cos \,ydx+\cos \,x\,\sin \,ydy}{\cos x\cos y}=0$ 

$\Rightarrow \tan xdx+\tan ydy=0$ 

$\Rightarrow \tan ydy=-\tan xdx$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \tan ydy=-\int \tan xdx$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left( \sec y \right)=-\log \left( \sec x \right)+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left( \sec y \right)+\log \left( \sec x \right)=C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left( \sec x\sec y \right)=C$ 

$\Rightarrow \sec x\sec y=k\,\,\left( k={{e}^{C}} \right)$ 

As curve passes through $\left( \text{0,}\frac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}} \right)$:

$\sec 0\sec \left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)=k$ 

$\Rightarrow k=\sqrt{2}$ 

$\Rightarrow \sec x\sec y=\sqrt{2}$ 

Thus the equation of required curve is $\text{sec}\,\text{x}\,\text{sec}\,\text{y=}\sqrt{\text{2}}$.


7. Find the particular solution of the differential equation $\left( \text{1+}{{\text{e}}^{\text{2x}}} \right)\text{dy+}\left( \text{1+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right){{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{dx=0}$ given that $\text{y=1}$ when $\text{x=0}$.

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$\left( 1+{{e}^{2x}} \right)dy+\left( 1+{{y}^{2}} \right){{e}^{x}}dx=0$ 

Divide both side $\left( \text{1+}{{\text{e}}^{\text{2x}}} \right)\left( \text{1+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)$:

\[\frac{dy}{\left( 1+{{y}^{2}} \right)}+\frac{{{e}^{x}}}{\left( 1+{{e}^{2x}} \right)}dx=0\] 

\[\int \frac{dy}{\left( 1+{{y}^{2}} \right)}=-\int \frac{{{e}^{x}}}{\left( 1+{{e}^{2x}} \right)}dx\] 

\[{{\tan }^{-1}}y=-\int \frac{{{e}^{x}}}{\left( 1+{{\left( {{e}^{x}} \right)}^{2}} \right)}dx\]

Substitute $t={{e}^{x}}$:

$dt={{e}^{x}}dx$ 

\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}y=-\int \frac{1}{\left( 1+{{t}^{2}} \right)}dt\] 

\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}y=-{{\tan }^{-1}}t+C\] 

\[\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}y=-{{\tan }^{-1}}{{e}^{x}}+C\] 

$\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}y+{{\tan }^{-1}}{{e}^{x}}=C$ 

As $\text{y=1}$ when $\text{x=0}$:

${{\tan }^{-1}}\left( 1 \right)+{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( {{e}^{0}} \right)=C$ 

\[\Rightarrow \frac{\pi }{4}+\frac{\pi }{4}=C\] 

\[\Rightarrow C=\frac{\pi }{2}\] 

$\Rightarrow {{\tan }^{-1}}y+{{\tan }^{-1}}{{e}^{x}}=\frac{\pi }{2}$ 

Thus the required particular solution is $\text{ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}\text{y+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{-1}}}{{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{=}\frac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$.


8. Solve the differential equation $\text{y}{{\text{e}}^{\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}}}\text{dx=}\left( \text{x}{{\text{e}}^{\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}}}\text{+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}} \right)\text{dy}\,\,\left( \text{y}\ne \text{0} \right)$.

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$y{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}dx=\left( x{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}+{{y}^{2}} \right)dy$ 

$y{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\frac{dx}{dy}=x{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}+{{y}^{2}}$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\frac{dx}{dy}-x{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}={{y}^{2}}$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\frac{\left[ y\frac{dx}{dy}-x \right]}{{{y}^{2}}}=1$ 

Substitute $\text{z=}{{\text{e}}^{\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}}}$:

$z={{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}$ 

$\frac{d}{dy}z=\frac{d}{dy}{{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dz}{dy}=\frac{d}{dy}\left( {{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}} \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dz}{dy}={{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\frac{d}{dy}\left( \frac{x}{y} \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dz}{dy}={{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\left[ \left( \frac{1}{y} \right)\frac{dx}{dy}-\frac{x}{{{y}^{2}}} \right]$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dz}{dy}={{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}\left[ \frac{y\frac{dx}{dy}-x}{{{y}^{2}}} \right]$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dz}{dy}=1$ 

\[\Rightarrow dz=dy\] 

\[\Rightarrow \int dz=\int dy\]

\[\Rightarrow z=y+C\] 

\[\Rightarrow {{e}^{\frac{x}{y}}}=y+C\] 

Thus the required general solution is \[{{\text{e}}^{\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}}}\text{=y+C}\].


9. Find a particular solution of the differential equation $\left( \text{x-y} \right)\left( \text{dx+dy} \right)\text{=dx-dy}$ given that $\text{y=-1}$ when $\text{x=0}$. Hint (put $\text{x-y=t}$).

Ans: Given differential equation is:

$\left( x-y \right)\left( dx+dy \right)=dx-dy$ 

$\Rightarrow \left( x-y \right)dx-dx=\left( y-x \right)dy-dy$

$\Rightarrow \left( x-y+1 \right)dy=\left( 1-x+y \right)dx$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1-x+y}{x-y+1}$ 

Put $\text{x-y=t}$:

$x-y=t$ 

$\Rightarrow 1-\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dt}{dx}$ 

$\Rightarrow 1-\frac{dt}{dx}=\frac{dy}{dx}$ 

$\Rightarrow 1-\frac{dt}{dx}=\frac{1-t}{1+t}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dt}{dx}=1-\frac{1-t}{1+t}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dt}{dx}=\frac{1+t-1+t}{1+t}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dt}{dx}=\frac{2t}{1+t}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{1+t}{t}dt=2dx$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{1+t}{t}dt=2\int dx$

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{1}{t}dt+\int dt=2x+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left| t \right|+t=2x+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left| x-y \right|+x-y=2x+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left| x-y \right|-y=x+C$ 

As $\text{y=-1}$ when $\text{x=0}$:

$\Rightarrow \log \left| 0-\left( -1 \right) \right|-\left( -1 \right)=0+C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log 1+1=C$ 

$\Rightarrow C=1$ 

Thus the required particular solution is:

$\log \left| x-y \right|-y=x+1$.


10. Solve the differential equation $\left[ \frac{{{\text{e}}^{\text{-2}\sqrt{\text{x}}}}}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}\text{-}\frac{\text{y}}{\sqrt{\text{x}}} \right]\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\text{=1}\,\left( \text{x}\ne \text{0} \right)$.

Ans: Given differential equation is:
$\left[ \frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}} \right]\frac{dx}{dy}=1$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{y}{\sqrt{x}}=\frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}}$ 

It is linear differential equation of the form $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+py=Q}$:

$p=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$ 

$Q=\frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}}$ 

Calculating integrating factor:

$I.F={{e}^{\int pdx}}$

$I.F={{e}^{\int \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}dx}}$ 

$I.F={{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}}$  

The general solution is given by:

$y\times I.F=\int \left( Q\times I.F \right)dx+C$ 

$y\times \left( {{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}} \right)=\int \left( \frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}}\times {{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}} \right)dx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}}=\int \left( \frac{{{e}^{-2\sqrt{x}+2\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x}} \right)dx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}}=\int \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}dx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}}=2\sqrt{x}+C$ 

Thus the general solution for the given differential equation is

$y{{e}^{2\sqrt{x}}}=2\sqrt{x}+C$.


11. Find a particular solution of the differential equation $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+ycotx=4x}\,\text{cosec}\,\text{x}\left( \text{x}\ne \text{0} \right)$ given that $\text{y=0}$ when $\text{x=}\frac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$.

Ans:
The given differential equation is:

 $\frac{dy}{dx}+y\cot x=4x\,\text{cosec}x$ 

It is linear differential equation of the form $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+py=Q}$:

$p=\cot x$ 

$Q=4x\text{cosec}\,x$ 

Calculating integrating factor:

$I.F={{e}^{\int pdx}}$

$I.F={{e}^{\int \cot xdx}}$ 

$I.F={{e}^{\log \left| \sin x \right|}}$ 

$I.F=\sin x$ 

The general solution is given by:

$y\times I.F=\int \left( Q\times I.F \right)dx+C$

$\Rightarrow y\times \sin x=\int \left( 4x\cos \text{ec}x \right)\sin xdx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y\sin x=4\int xdx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y\sin x=4\left( \frac{{{x}^{2}}}{2} \right)+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y\sin x=2{{x}^{2}}+C$ 

As $\text{y=0}$ when $\text{x=}\frac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$:

$0\times \sin \left( \frac{\pi }{2} \right)=2{{\left( \frac{\pi }{2} \right)}^{2}}+C$ 

$C=-2\left( \frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{4} \right)$ 

$C=-\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2}$ 

Thus the required particular solution is:

$y\sin x=2{{x}^{2}}-\frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2}$


12. Find a particular solution of the differential equation $\left( \text{x+1} \right)\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{=2}{{\text{e}}^{\text{-y}}}\text{-1}$ given that $\text{y=0}$ when $\text{x=0}$.

Ans:
The given differential equation is:

 $\left( x+1 \right)\frac{dy}{dx}=2{{e}^{-y}}-1$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\frac{dx}{x+1}$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\int \frac{dx}{x+1}$ 

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\log \left( x+1 \right)+\log C$ ……(1) 

Evaluating LHS integral:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\int \frac{{{e}^{y}}dy}{2-{{e}^{y}}}$ 

Put $\text{t=2-}{{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}$:

$t=2-{{e}^{y}}$

$dt=-{{e}^{y}}dy$  

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=-\int \frac{dt}{t}$

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=-\log \left( t \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\log \frac{1}{t}$ 

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\log \frac{1}{2-{{e}^{y}}}$ 

Back substituting in expression (1):

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dy}{2{{e}^{-y}}-1}=\log \left( x+1 \right)+\log C$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left( \frac{1}{2-{{e}^{y}}} \right)=\log C\left( x+1 \right)$ 

$\Rightarrow 2-{{e}^{y}}=\frac{1}{C\left( x+1 \right)}$ 

As $\text{y=0}$ when $\text{x=0}$:

$\Rightarrow 2-{{e}^{0}}=\frac{1}{C\left( 0+1 \right)}$ 

$\Rightarrow 2-1=\frac{1}{C}$ 

$\Rightarrow C=1$ 

Thus the required particular solution is:

$\Rightarrow 2-{{e}^{y}}=\frac{1}{\left( x+1 \right)}$

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{y}}=2-\frac{1}{\left( x+1 \right)}$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{y}}=\frac{2x+2-1}{\left( x+1 \right)}$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{y}}=\frac{2x+1}{x+1}$ 

$\Rightarrow y=\log \left( \frac{2x+1}{x+1} \right)$  

Thus for given conditions the particular solution is $\text{y=log}\left( \frac{\text{2x+1}}{\text{x+1}} \right)$ .


13. The general solution of the differential equation $\frac{\text{ydx-xdy}}{\text{y}}\text{=0}$.

A. $xy=C$ 

B. $x=C{{y}^{2}}$ 

C. $y=Cx$ 

D. $y=C{{x}^{2}}$ 

Ans: Given differential equation:

$\frac{ydx-xdy}{y}=0$

Divide both side by $\text{x}$ :

$\Rightarrow \frac{ydx-xdy}{xy}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{x}-\frac{dy}{y}=0$ 

Integrate both side:

$\Rightarrow \int \frac{dx}{x}-\int \frac{dy}{y}=0$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left| x \right|-\log \left| y \right|=\log k$ 

$\Rightarrow \log \left| \frac{x}{y} \right|=\log k$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{x}{y}=k$ 

$\Rightarrow y=Cx\,\,\,\left( C=\frac{1}{k} \right)$

Thus the correct option is ©


14. Find the general solution of a differential equation of the type $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\text{+}{{\text{P}}_{\text{1}}}\text{x=}{{\text{Q}}_{\text{1}}}$.

A. \[y{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}}=\int \left( {{Q}_{1}}{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}} \right)dy+C\]   

B. \[y{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dx}}=\int \left( {{Q}_{1}}{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dx}} \right)dy+C\] 

C. \[x{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}}=\int \left( {{Q}_{1}}{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}} \right)dy+C\]   

D. \[x{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}}=\int \left( {{Q}_{1}}{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dx}} \right)dy+C\]   

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$\frac{dx}{dy}+{{P}_{1}}x={{Q}_{1}}$ 

It is a linear differential equation and its general solution is:

$x{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}}=\int \left( {{Q}_{1}}{{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}} \right)dy+C$ 

With integrating factor $I.F={{e}^{\int {{P}_{1}}dy}}$.

Thus the correct option is (C).


15. Find the general solution of the differential equation ${{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{dy+}\left( \text{y}{{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{+2x} \right)\text{dx=0}$.

A. $\text{x}{{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}\text{+}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=C}$ 

B. $\text{x}{{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}\text{+}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=C}$ 

C. $\text{y}{{\text{e}}^{\text{x}}}\text{+}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=C}$ 

D. $\text{y}{{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}\text{+}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}\text{=C}$ 

Ans: The given differential equation is:
${{e}^{x}}dy+\left( y{{e}^{x}}+2x \right)dx=0$ 

$\Rightarrow {{e}^{x}}\frac{dy}{dx}+y{{e}^{x}}=-2x$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}+y=-2x{{e}^{-x}}$   

The given differential equation is of the form:

$\frac{dy}{dx}+Py=Q$ 

$\Rightarrow P=1$ 

$\Rightarrow Q=-2x{{e}^{-x}}$ 

Calculating integrating factor:
$I.F={{e}^{\int Pdx}}$

$\Rightarrow I.F={{e}^{\int dx}}$ 

$\Rightarrow I.F={{e}^{x}}$  

It is a linear differential equation and its general solution is:

$y\left( I.F \right)=\int \left( Q\times I.F \right)dx+C$

 $y\left( {{e}^{x}} \right)=\int \left( -2x{{e}^{-x}}\times {{e}^{x}} \right)dy+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{x}}=-2\int xdx+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{x}}=-2\left( \frac{{{x}^{2}}}{2} \right)+C$ 

$\Rightarrow y{{e}^{x}}+{{x}^{2}}=C$ 

Thus the correct answer is option (C).

FAQs on NCERT Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 9 Differential Equations - 2025-26

1. What is the correct stepwise approach to solving differential equations in the Miscellaneous Exercise of Class 12 Maths as per NCERT Solutions?

Start by identifying the type of differential equation (order, degree, linearity). Then, select the suitable method, such as separation of variables, integrating factor, or substitution. Clearly show each step—this includes integrations, substitutions, and simplifications. Apply any provided initial conditions to obtain particular solutions. Always write your process sequentially, as per the CBSE marking scheme.

2. How do you determine the order and degree of a differential equation in Class 12 Maths, and why is this important in the Miscellaneous Exercise?

The order is the highest derivative present in the equation, and the degree is the exponent of that highest order derivative when the equation is rationalized and involves only positive integer powers. Correct identification is crucial, as it guides you to select the most appropriate NCERT solution method and helps maximize process marks in CBSE board exams.

3. What are the most frequent errors students make while working through the NCERT Solutions for Differential Equations Miscellaneous Exercise?

  • Misidentifying the equation type (linear, homogeneous, separable)
  • Skipping stepwise calculations or missing integral steps
  • Misapplying integrating factor formulas or substitutions
  • Not applying initial/boundary conditions properly
  • Improper simplification or mishandling of constants

Following the stepwise NCERT pattern reduces these errors.

4. In NCERT Solutions for Differential Equations, what is the difference between general and particular solutions, and how should students approach each in their answers?

A general solution includes an arbitrary constant and represents all possible solutions, while a particular solution satisfies given initial conditions to eliminate the constant. In exams, always start by solving for the general solution, then substitute the given conditions to find the particular solution, boxing the final answer as per CBSE answer guidelines.

5. Which standard formulas from the syllabus are most useful for solving the Miscellaneous Exercise in Differential Equations?

  • General solution of linear first order equations: dy/dx + Py = Q; Integrating factor = e∫P dx
  • Separation of variables: N(y) dy = M(x) dx
  • Order and degree definitions
  • Population decay/growth: dx/dt = kx, x = x0ekt

Mastery of these aids quick and accurate solutions in board exams.

6. What is the recommended strategy for last-minute revision of the Miscellaneous Exercise in Differential Equations for CBSE exams?

  • Review stepwise NCERT Solutions for each type of differential equation
  • Create a mind map of main formulas and methods
  • Practice one solved example for each method (separation of variables, integrating factor, application-based)
  • Attempt previous years' board questions from this topic
  • Pay special attention to CBSE marking patterns in your answers

7. How does practicing Miscellaneous Exercise NCERT Solutions help in understanding the broader concepts of differential equations?

Practicing varied question types increases flexibility in problem-solving and reveals underlying mathematical patterns. It encourages deeper conceptual understanding, enabling you to apply techniques to new or multi-step problems and build confidence for higher-order questions in board exams.

8. What is the process to verify whether a given function is a solution to a differential equation as shown in NCERT Solutions?

First, differentiate the given function as required to find its derivatives. Substitute the function and its derivatives into the given differential equation. Then, simplify both sides; if the equation is satisfied (both sides are equal), the function is a valid solution to the equation.

9. What typical mark weightage does the Miscellaneous Exercise from Chapter 9 Differential Equations carry in the CBSE Class 12 Maths board exam?

The Miscellaneous Exercise for Chapter 9 generally carries around 7 marks in the CBSE board exam. Marks may be distributed across a 4–5 mark application-based problem and 1–2 mark short-answer or process questions linked to this exercise.

10. Why is it important to write each step (including integral, substitution, application of initial conditions) while solving differential equations in NCERT Solutions format?

CBSE awards marks for each process step—not just the final answer. Clearly written steps ensure full marks for method, even if a minor calculation error occurs. This approach also makes your answer easy for examiners to check against NCERT mark scheme requirements.

11. How should students approach application-based questions in Differential Equations Miscellaneous Exercise for best board exam performance?

  • Translate the word problem into the correct differential equation using context clues
  • Identify the equation type and solve using the appropriate method
  • Interpret the solution in the context of the problem (e.g., population, circuits, chemical reactions)

This ensures you meet NCERT and CBSE requirements for high-order thinking skills (HOTS) and secure top marks.

12. What are the main types of differential equations encountered in the Miscellaneous Exercise and their solution methods as per NCERT Solutions?

  • First order, first degree (Linear): Use integrating factor method
  • Separable equations: Separate variables and integrate both sides
  • Homogeneous equations: Use substitutions like y = vx and solve as separable
  • Exact and reducible to exact types: Identify and apply integrating factor or suitable method
  • Application-based equations: Map problem data directly to equation structure and solve

13. How does understanding order and degree help in choosing the right problem-solving method for a given question?

Knowing the order and degree allows you to quickly identify if the equation is linear, homogeneous, or requires a substitution. This understanding streamlines your method selection, saves time during the exam, and ensures alignment with the NCERT Solutions approach.

14. What misconceptions do students commonly have about integrating factors and substitutions in differential equations?

Many students confuse when to apply integrating factor (used for linear equations only) and when to use substitution (mainly for homogeneous or reducible forms). Another misconception is in integrating both sides—sometimes, students neglect to integrate the integrating factor times Q term. Careful practice of NCERT stepwise methods avoids these errors.

15. In board exams, how are constants in general and particular solutions usually presented as per the NCERT Solutions style?

In a general solution, always leave the constant as 'C' or another variable. For particular solutions, substitute the provided initial or boundary condition, directly solve for the constant, and box the final answer. Clearly labelling these in your steps matches the official CBSE/NCERT answer format.
