Class 12 Maths · Differential Equations · Short Answer #43

Find the sum of order and degree of (x + y′)² = (y′)² + 1.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 2
  1. Expand: x² + 2xy′ + (y′)² = (y′)² + 1.
  2. Cancel the identical squared-derivative terms: 2xy′ + x² − 1 = 0. The reduced differential polynomial has order 1 and degree 1.
  3. The required sum is 1 + 1 = 2.
