If $${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {{y \over 2}} \right) = {\log _e}{\left( {{x \over 5}} \right)^5},\,|y| < 2$$, then :
Solution
<p>$${\cos ^{ - 1}}\left( {{y \over 2}} \right) = {\log _e}{\left( {{x \over 5}} \right)^5}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|y| < 2$$</p>
<p>Differentiating on both side</p>
<p>$$ - {1 \over {\sqrt {1 - {{\left( {{y \over 2}} \right)}^2}} }} \times {{y'} \over 2} = {5 \over {{x \over 5}}} \times {1 \over 5}$$</p>
<p>${{ - xy'} \over 2} = 5\sqrt {1 - {{\left( {{y \over 2}} \right)}^2}}$</p>
<p>Square on both side</p>
<p>${{{x^2}y{'^2}} \over 4} = 25\left( {{{4 - {y^2}} \over 4}} \right)$</p>
<p>Diff on both side</p>
<p>$2xy{'^2} + 2y'y''{x^2} = - 25 \times 2yy'$</p>
<p>$xy' + y''{x^2} + 25y = 0$</p>
