Answer

To find \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) at \(x = \pi\) given \(x = e^t \sin t\) and \(y = e^t \cos t\), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Find \(\frac{dx}{dt}\)

Given:
\[ x = e^t \sin t \]

Using the product rule:
\[ \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(e^t) \cdot \sin t + e^t \cdot \frac{d}{dt}(\sin t) \]
\[ = e^t \sin t + e^t \cos t = e^t (\sin t + \cos t) \]

### Step 2: Find \(\frac{dy}{dt}\)

Given:
\[ y = e^t \cos t \]

Using the product rule:
\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(e^t) \cdot \cos t + e^t \cdot \frac{d}{dt}(\cos t) \]
\[ = e^t \cos t - e^t \sin t = e^t (\cos t - \sin t) \]

### Step 3: Find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)

Using the chain rule:
\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt} \]
Substituting the values we found:
\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{e^t (\cos t - \sin t)}{e^t (\sin t + \cos t)} = \frac{\cos t - \sin t}{\sin t + \cos t} \]

### Step 4: Find \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\)

Using the quotient rule:
\[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{(v \cdot \frac{du}{dx} - u \cdot \frac{dv}{dx})}{v^2} \]
where \(u = \cos t - \sin t\) and \(v = \sin t + \cos t\).

First, we find \(\frac{du}{dt}\) and \(\frac{dv}{dt}\):
\[ \frac{du}{dt} = -\sin t - \cos t \]
\[ \frac{dv}{dt} = \cos t - \sin t \]

Now, applying the quotient rule:
\[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{(\sin t + \cos t)(-\sin t - \cos t) - (\cos t - \sin t)(\cos t - \sin t)}{(\sin t + \cos t)^2} \]

### Step 5: Substitute \(t\) for \(x = \pi\)

To find \(t\) when \(x = \pi\):
\[ \pi = e^t \sin t \]
This is a transcendental equation and we can find \(t\) numerically or graphically. For simplicity, let's assume we find \(t\) such that \(\sin t\) is positive and \(e^t\) is manageable.

### Step 6: Evaluate \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) at \(t\)

Now we can substitute \(t\) into our expression for \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) and simplify.

### Final Calculation

Assuming we find \(t\) such that \(x = \pi\) leads to specific values for \(\sin t\) and \(\cos t\) (e.g., \(\sin(\pi) = 0\) and \(\cos(\pi) = -1\)):
\[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{-2}{e^t (\sin t + \cos t)^3} \]

Evaluating at \(t\) where \(x = \pi\):
\[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{2}{e^\pi (-1 + 0)^3} = \frac{2}{-e^\pi} = -\frac{2}{e^\pi} \]

### Conclusion

Thus, the value of \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) at \(x = \pi\) is:
\[ \frac{2}{e^\pi} \]
