The slope of the tangent to a curve at a...

The slope of the tangent to a curve at any point `(x ,y)` on its given by `y/x-cot(y/x) . cos(y/x) ,(x >0,y >0)` and the curve passes though the point `(1,pi/4)`. Find the equation of the curve.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`frac{dy}{dx}=(y/x)-cot(y/x)cos(y/x)`
`frac{dy}{dx}=f(y/x)`
Puting `y=vx`
`frac{dy}{dx}=v+xfrac{dv}{dx}`
`v+xfrac{dv}{dx}=frac{vx}{x}-cotfrac{vx}{x} cosfrac{vx}{x}`
`x frac{dv}{dx}=-cot v cos v`
`frac{dv}{-cot v cos v}=frac{dv}{x}`
`int frac{dv}{-cot v cos v}= int frac{dv}{x}+C` ...
