The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the orthogonal trajectories of the given family of curves defined by the slope of the normal at any point (x, y) being \(2(1 - y)\). ### Step 1: Understanding the slope of the normal The slope of the normal at a point (x, y) is given as: \[ \text{slope of normal} = 2(1 - y) \] The slope of the tangent line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the normal. Therefore, we can express the slope of the tangent \( \frac{dy}{dx} \) as: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{2(1 - y)} \] ### Step 2: Rearranging the equation We can rearrange the equation to separate variables: \[ (1 - y) dy = -\frac{1}{2} dx \] ### Step 3: Integrating both sides Now, we integrate both sides: \[ \int (1 - y) dy = -\frac{1}{2} \int dx \] This gives us: \[ y - \frac{y^2}{2} = -\frac{x}{2} + C \] where \(C\) is the constant of integration. ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation Rearranging the equation, we can express it as: \[ y - \frac{y^2}{2} + \frac{x}{2} = C \] ### Step 5: Finding the orthogonal trajectories To find the orthogonal trajectories, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original family of curves. The slope of the original family of curves is: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{2(1 - y)} \] Thus, the slope of the orthogonal trajectories is: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = 2(1 - y) \] ### Step 6: Setting up the differential equation for orthogonal trajectories We can set up the differential equation for the orthogonal trajectories: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = 2(1 - y) \] ### Step 7: Rearranging and separating variables Rearranging gives us: \[ \frac{dy}{1 - y} = 2 dx \] ### Step 8: Integrating both sides Integrating both sides: \[ \int \frac{dy}{1 - y} = \int 2 dx \] This results in: \[ -\ln |1 - y| = 2x + C \] ### Step 9: Exponentiating both sides Exponentiating both sides gives: \[ 1 - y = e^{-2x - C} \] Let \(k = e^{-C}\), we can rewrite this as: \[ 1 - y = \frac{k}{e^{2x}} \] ### Step 10: Solving for y Thus, we have: \[ y = 1 - \frac{k}{e^{2x}} \] ### Final Result The orthogonal trajectories of the given family of curves are: \[ y = 1 - ke^{-2x} \]
