U can compare this with the form,
dy/dx +Py =Q
where integrating factor (I.F) can be found by
I.F= e^
P dx
P dxHence, for the above differential equation,
I.F. = e^
sec2x dx
sec2x dx = etanx
We know,
y(I.F.) =
Q. (I.F.) dx
Q. (I.F.) dxy. etanx =
etanx. tanx. sec2x dx
etanx. tanx. sec2x dxFor, RHS,
take tanx=t
sec2x dx= dt
Hence integral becomes,
RHS=
et . t dt
et . t dtOn integrating this u'll get,
= et(t-1)
putting t=tanx, we get the final expression as,
y. etanx = etanx(tanx-1) +c
where c is the const. of integration.
Hope u got it!!
