Let y = y(x) be a solution curve of the differential equation $$(y + 1){\tan ^2}x\,dx + \tan x\,dy + y\,dx = 0$$, $$x \in \left( {0,{\pi \over 2}} \right)$$. If $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 + } xy(x) = 1$$, then the value of $$y\left( {{\pi \over 4}} \right)$$ is :

  4. D.$${\pi \over 4}$$correct

Answer

D. $${\pi \over 4}$$

Explanation

$$(y + 1){\tan ^2}x\,dx + \tan x\,dy + y\,dx = 0$$ or $${{dy} \over {dx}} + {{{{\sec }^2}x} \over {\tan x}}.y = - \tan x$$ $$IF = {e^{\int {{{{{\sec }^2}x} \over {\tan x}}dx} }} = {e^{\ln \tan x}} = \tan x$$ $$\therefore$$ $$y\tan x = - \int {{{\tan }^2}x\,dx} $$ or $$y\tan x = - \tan x + x + C$$ or $$y = - 1 + {x \over {\tan x}} + {C \over {\tan x}}$$ or $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} xy = - x + {{{x^2}} \over {\tan x}} + {{Cx} \over {\tan x}} = 1$$ or C = 1 $$y(x) = \cot x + x\cot x - 1$$ $$y\left( {{\pi \over 4}} \right) = {\pi \over 4}$$
