Differential Equations — Maths STD 12 Science — Question

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x + y}}{\text{x}-\text{y}}$

This is a homogeneous differential equation.

Put y = vx and $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{v + x}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}$, we get

$\text{v + x}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{{\text{x}}+\text{vx}}{\text{x}-\text{vx}}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{v + x}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1+\text{v}}{1-\text{v}}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{x}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1+\text{v}}{1-\text{v}}-\text{v}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{x}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1+\text{v}^2}{1-\text{v}}$

$\frac{1-\text{v}}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

Integrating both sides, we get

$\int\frac{1-\text{v}}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\Rightarrow\ \int\frac{1}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}-\int\frac{\text{v}}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\Rightarrow\ \int\frac{1}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}-\frac{1}2\int\frac{2\text{v}}{1+\text{v}^2}\text{dv}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\tan^{-1}\text{v}-\frac{1}2\log\big|1+\text{v}^2\big|=\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

Putting $\text{v}=\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}$, we get

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)-\frac{1}2\log\Big|1+\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{x}^2}\Big|=\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|1+\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{x}^2}\Big|+\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|\frac{\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2}{\text{x}^2}\Big|+\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2\Big|-\frac{1}2\log|\text{x}^2|+\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2\Big|-\log|\text{x}|+\log|\text{x}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2\Big|+\text{C}$

Hence, $\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}2\log\Big|\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2\Big|+\text{C}$ is the required solution.
