(D^2 + 1) y = sec^2 (x) tan (x)

solve for Yp.

To solve for Yp in the equation (D^2 + 1)y = sec^2(x)tan(x), we can use the method of undetermined coefficients. This method involves assuming a particular form for the solution and substituting it back into the original equation to determine the coefficients.

1. Assume that Yp has the form:

Yp = Asec^2(x)tan(x)

Where A is the coefficient we want to determine.

2. Differentiate Yp twice with respect to x to find the derivatives:

Yp' = 2Asec^2(x)tan(x)sec^2(x) + Asec^2(x)sec^2(x)
= 3Asec^4(x)tan(x)

Yp'' = d/dx (3Asec^4(x)tan(x))
= 12Asec^4(x)tan^2(x)sec^2(x) + 3Asec^4(x)sec^2(x)
= 3Asec^4(x)(4tan^2(x) + 1)

3. Substitute the derivatives back into the original equation (D^2 + 1)y = sec^2(x)tan(x):

(D^2 + 1)Yp = sec^2(x)tan(x)

(D^2 + 1)(Asec^2(x)tan(x)) = sec^2(x)tan(x)

(D^2(Asec^2(x)tan(x)) + Asec^2(x)tan(x) = sec^2(x)tan(x)

3Asec^4(x)(4tan^2(x) + 1) + Asec^2(x)tan(x) = sec^2(x)tan(x)

Simplifying the equation:

12Asec^4(x)tan^2(x) + 3Asec^4(x) + Asec^2(x)tan(x) = sec^2(x)tan(x)

4. Equating the coefficients of like terms on both sides:

12Asec^4(x)tan^2(x) + 3Asec^4(x) + Asec^2(x)tan(x) = sec^2(x)tan(x)

Comparing the coefficients, we have:

12A = 0 => A = 0
3A = 1 => A = 1/3
A = 0 does not satisfy the equation, so A = 1/3.

Therefore, the particular solution Yp is:

Yp = (1/3)sec^2(x)tan(x)
