Use the method discussed under “Homogeneous Equations” to solve problems 9-16.
$\frac{dy}{dθ} = \frac{θ \sec (\frac{y}{θ}) + y}{θ}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

Homogeneous equation for the given equation is $y = θ \sin^{- 1} (\ln |θ| + C)$

Step by step solution

General form of Homogeneous equation

If the right-hand side of the equation $\frac{dy}{dx} = f (x, y)$ can be expressed as a function of the ratio $\frac{y}{x}$ alone, then we say the equation is homogeneous.

Evaluate the given equation

Given, $\frac{d y}{d θ} = \frac{θ \sec (\frac{y}{θ}) + y}{θ}$

Evaluate it.

$\frac{dy}{d θ} = \frac{θ \sec (\frac{y}{θ})}{θ} + \frac{y}{θ} \frac{dy}{d θ} = \sec (\frac{y}{θ}) + \frac{y}{θ}$

Substitution method

Let us take $v = \frac{y}{x}$

Then $y = v x$

By Differentiating,

$\begin{array}{rcl} \frac{dy}{d θ} & = & v + θ \frac{dv}{d θ} \\ \sec v + v & = & v + θ \frac{dv}{d θ} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{rcl} \sec v & = & θ \frac{dv}{d θ} \\ \frac{1}{\sec v} dv & = & \frac{1}{θ} d θ \end{array}$

Integrate the equation

Now, integrate on both sides.

$\begin{array}{rcl} \int \frac{1}{\sec v} dv & = & \int \frac{1}{θ} d θ \\ \int \cos v dv & = & \ln |θ| + C \\ \sin v & = & \ln |θ| + C \end{array}$

Substitute $v = \frac{y}{θ}$

$\begin{array}{rcl} \sin (\frac{y}{θ}) & = & \ln |θ| + C \\ \frac{y}{θ} & = & \sin^{- 1} (\ln |θ| + C) \\ y & = & θ \sin^{- 1} (\ln |θ| + C) \end{array}$

Therefore, Homogeneous equation for the given equation is $y = θ \sin^{- 1} (\ln |θ| + C)$ .
