Class 12 Maths · Differential Equations · Long Answer #46

Solve xy′ = y − x tan(y/x), y(1) = π/4.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: x sin(y/x) = 1/√2; near x = 1, y = x arcsin(1/(√2x)), x > 1/√2.
  1. Put v = y/x. Substitution gives xv′ = −tan v.
  2. Integrate cot v dv = −dx/x: ln|sin v| = −ln|x| + C, hence x sin v = C₁.
  3. At (1, π/4), C₁ = 1/√2. Select the arcsine branch through π/4.
  4. The solution is y = x arcsin(1/(√2x)), on x > 1/√2; cos(y/x) must remain nonzero.
