One or more options correct
Let y=y(x) be the solution of dxdy+ytanx=sin2x on [0,2π) with y(0)=1. Which of the following is (are) correct?
A.y(3π)=1
B.The maximum value of y(x) on [0,2π) is 89
C.∫0π/2y(x)dx=3−2π
D.y(4π)=1
Show answer and solution
Answer:A, B, C
The integrating factor is e∫tanxdx=secx, so dxd(ysecx)=sin2xsecx=2sinx. Hence ysecx=−2cosx+C, and y(0)=1 gives C=3, so y=3cosx−2cos2x. At x=3π: 23−21=1 (A true). Put u=cosx∈(0,1]; y=3u−2u2 is maximal at u=43 with value 49−89=89 (B true), and u=43 lies in the range. Integrating, ∫0π/2(3cosx−2cos2x)dx=3−2⋅4π=3−2π (C true). At x=4π, y=23−1=232−2≈1.12=1 (D false). Answer: A, B, C. The domain restriction matters because tanx is undefined at 2π, but the solution extends continuously there with y→0. The substitution u=cosx turns the maximisation into a simple quadratic, which is why no differentiation of the trigonometric form is needed. Option D is the typical error of evaluating cos4π as 21 or using a wrong constant of integration.
