Solve y′ + sec²x · y = tan x sec²x, y(0) = 0.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: y = tan x − 1 + e^(−tan x), −π/2 < x < π/2.
  1. IF = exp(∫sec²x dx) = e^(tan x).
  2. Then ye^(tan x) = ∫tan x sec²x e^(tan x)dx + C. Put t = tan x; ∫teᵗdt = (t − 1)eᵗ.
  3. Thus y = tan x − 1 + Ce^(−tan x). At x = 0, C = 1.
  4. Therefore y = tan x − 1 + e^(−tan x) on (−π/2, π/2).

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] IF = exp(∫sec²x dx) = e^(tan x).
  • [1 mark] Then ye^(tan x) = ∫tan x sec²x e^(tan x)dx + C. Put t = tan x; ∫teᵗdt = (t − 1)eᵗ.
  • [1 mark] Thus y = tan x − 1 + Ce^(−tan x). At x = 0, C = 1.
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore y = tan x − 1 + e^(−tan x) on (−π/2, π/2).
