Question
Question: If \( x = \cos ec\,\theta - \sin \,\theta \) and \( y = \cos e{c^n}\theta - {\sin ^n}\theta \) , T...
If x=cosecθ−sinθ and y=cosecnθ−sinnθ ,
Then show that (x2+y)(dxdy)2−n2(y2+4)=0 .
Solution
Hint : (dxdy)2 is not equal to dx2d2y as (dxdy)2 is the square of dxdy and dx2d2y is the double differentiation of y with respect to x . sinnθ on differentiation do not cosnθ . as it's totally different thing. It's (sinθ)n which will be differentiated by the rule dxdxn=nxn−1 method. The parametric form is a method in which you differentiate two values with same value and later divide them, for example
if x=sinθ and y=cosθ , Find dxdy
Thus, dθdx=cosθ and dθdy=−sinθ
Thus, dxdy=dθdxdθdy=cosθ−sinθ=tanθ
Complete step-by-step answer :
Given: (x2+y)(dxdy)2−n2(y2+4)=0
First differentiate x and y with respect to θ to get the values,
x=cosecθ−sinθ ⇒dθdx=−cotθ.cosecθ−cosθ =sinθ−cosθ×cosecθ−cosθ =−cosθ(sinθcosecθ+1) dθdx=−sinθcosθ(cosecθ+sinθ)−−−−−−(i)
Now, for y ,
Now to find dxdy , first divide dθdy and dθdx .
⇒dxdy=dθdxdθdy=−cotθ(cosecθ+sinθ)−ncotθ(cosecnθ+sinnθ) dxdy=(cosecθ+sinθ)n(cosecnθ+sinnθ)
Now, putting the value of dxdy in the given equation.
\Rightarrow (x2+y)(dxdy)2−n2(y2+4)=0
Now, Left hand side is
⇒(x2+y)(dxdy)2−n2(y2+4) =((cosecθ−sinθ)2+4)(n2(cosecθ−sinθ)2(cosecnθ−sinnθ)2)−n2((cosecnθ−sinnθ)2+4) =(cosec2θ+sin2θ−2+4)(n2(cosecθ−sinθ)2(cosecnθ−sinnθ)2)−n2(cosec2nθ+sin2nθ−2+4) =(cosec2θ+sin2θ+2cosecθ.sinθ)n2((cosecθ−sinθ)(cosecnθ−sinnθ))2−n2(cosec2nθ+sin2nθ+2cosecnθ.sinnθ) =(cosecθ+sinθ)2n2((cosecθ−sinθ)2(cosecnθ−sinnθ)2)−n2(cosecnθ+sinnθ)2 =n2(cosecnθ+sinnθ)2−n2(cosecnθ+sinnθ)2 =0
Hence the left hand side proved equal to right hand side
Note : In this type of questions students often make mistakes while differentiating. Do not directly differentiate y with respect to x to get dxdy as it will be completely incorrect, Hence try to use another variable ” θ ” and then divide them to get dxdy , Now perform the operation on the given equation very carefully. A simple error in sign can bring you out the wrong result.
