NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 9 Differential Equations · Exercise 9.3 Question 14

Solve y′=y tan x, y(0)=1.

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: y=sec x, −π/2<x<π/2.
  1. Separate dy/y=tan x dx; integrating gives y=C sec x.
  2. At x=0, y=1 gives C=1. The initial-value interval is (−π/2,π/2).
  3. Differentiate the resulting relation to recover the equation on intervals where the original expressions and the required slope are defined.
