Method of Differentiation — JEE Maths practice question

JEE Maths question with a full step-by-step solution.

Question
If y=esin1x+ecos1xy = e^{\sin^{-1}x}+e^{-\cos^{-1}x}, then the value of y(x21)+yxy\left|\dfrac{y''(x^2-1)+y}{xy'}\right|.
Solution
Answer: 1
Step 1: Simplify yy Using cos1x=sin1xπ2-\cos^{-1}x = \sin^{-1}x - \dfrac{\pi}{2}:
y=esin1x+esin1xπ/2=esin1x ⁣(1+eπ/2)y = e^{\sin^{-1}x}+e^{\sin^{-1}x-\pi/2} = e^{\sin^{-1}x}\!\left(1+e^{-\pi/2}\right)
Step 2: Derive the differential equation satisfied by yy
y=y1x2    (1x2)(y)2=y2y' = \frac{y}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \implies (1-x^2)(y')^2 = y^2
Differentiating and dividing by 2y2y':
(1x2)yxy=y    (x21)y+xy+y=0(1-x^2)y'' - xy' = y \implies (x^2-1)y'' + xy' + y = 0
Step 3: Evaluate the expression
(x21)y+y=xy    (x21)y+yxy=1(x^2-1)y''+y = -xy' \implies \frac{(x^2-1)y''+y}{xy'} = -1
y(x21)+yxy=1\left|\frac{y''(x^2-1)+y}{xy'}\right| = 1
