Question

Let $y = y(x)$ be the solution curve of the differential equation $(1 + x^2) dy + (y - \tan^{-1}x) dx = 0$, $y(0) = 1$. Then the value of $y(1)$ is :

The correct answer is
$\frac{2}{e^{\pi/4}} + \frac{\pi}{4} - 1$

The given differential equation is:

$(1 + x^2) dy + (y - \tan^{-1}x) dx = 0$

With the initial condition $y(0) = 1$. We need to find the value of $y(1)$.

Differential Equation Rearrangement

First, rearrange the equation into the standard linear first-order form $\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)$.

  • Divide by $(1 + x^2)$: $dy + \frac{y - \tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2} dx = 0$
  • Isolate the $dy$ term: $dy = - \frac{y - \tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2} dx$
  • Rewrite as a derivative: $\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{y}{1 + x^2} + \frac{\tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2}$
  • Standard form: $\frac{dy}{dx} + \frac{1}{1 + x^2}y = \frac{\tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2}$

Here, $P(x) = \frac{1}{1 + x^2}$ and $Q(x) = \frac{\tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2}$.

Integrating Factor Calculation

Calculate the integrating factor (IF):

  • $IF = e^{\int P(x) dx}$
  • $\int P(x) dx = \int \frac{1}{1 + x^2} dx = \tan^{-1}x$
  • $IF = e^{\tan^{-1}x}$

General Solution Derivation

The general solution is given by $y \cdot IF = \int Q(x) \cdot IF dx + C$.

  • $y \cdot e^{\tan^{-1}x} = \int \frac{\tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2} \cdot e^{\tan^{-1}x} dx + C$
  • To solve the integral $\int \frac{\tan^{-1}x}{1 + x^2} e^{\tan^{-1}x} dx$, let $u = \tan^{-1}x$. Then $du = \frac{1}{1 + x^2} dx$.
  • The integral becomes $\int u e^u du$.
  • Using integration by parts ($\int w dv = wv - \int v dw$), let $w=u$ and $dv=e^u du$. Then $dw=du$ and $v=e^u$.
  • $\int u e^u du = u e^u - \int e^u du = u e^u - e^u = (u-1)e^u$.
  • Substitute back $u = \tan^{-1}x$: The integral is $(\tan^{-1}x - 1)e^{\tan^{-1}x}$.
  • So, $y \cdot e^{\tan^{-1}x} = (\tan^{-1}x - 1)e^{\tan^{-1}x} + C$.
  • Divide by $e^{\tan^{-1}x}$ to get the general solution for $y(x)$: $y(x) = (\tan^{-1}x - 1) + C e^{-\tan^{-1}x}$

Applying Initial Condition

Use the initial condition $y(0) = 1$ to find the constant $C$.

  • $1 = (\tan^{-1}0 - 1) + C e^{-\tan^{-1}0}$
  • $1 = (0 - 1) + C e^0$
  • $1 = -1 + C \cdot 1$
  • $C = 2$

The specific solution is $y(x) = (\tan^{-1}x - 1) + 2 e^{-\tan^{-1}x}$.

Calculating y(1)

Now, find the value of $y(1)$ using the specific solution.

  • $y(1) = (\tan^{-1}1 - 1) + 2 e^{-\tan^{-1}1}$
  • Since $\tan^{-1}1 = \frac{\pi}{4}$: $y(1) = (\frac{\pi}{4} - 1) + 2 e^{-\pi/4}$
  • $y(1) = \frac{\pi}{4} - 1 + \frac{2}{e^{\pi/4}}$
  • Rearranging the terms gives: $y(1) = \frac{2}{e^{\pi/4}} + \frac{\pi}{4} - 1$
