Let y = y(x) be the solution of the differential equation

cosxdydx + 2ysinx = sin2x, x ∈ (0,π2).

If y(π3) = 0, then y(π4) is equal to :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 12−1
  • B 2−2
  • C 2−2
  • D 2+2

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

cosxdydx + 2ysinx = sin2x

⇒ dydx+2ytan⁡x=2sin⁡x

I.F = e∫2tan⁡xdx = sec2 x

y.sec2 x = ∫2sin⁡xsec2xdx

⇒ ysec2x = ∫2tan⁡xsec⁡xdx

⇒ ysec2x = 2secx + c

Given at x = π3, y = 0

⇒ 0 = 2sec⁡π3+c

⇒ c = -4

ysec2x = 2secx - 4

Here put x = π4

y.2 = 22 - 4

⇒ y = 2−2
