1 If xexy – y = sin2x. Differentiating both the sides with respect to x.
Soln. ( xexy – = ( sin2x ) ⟹ x exy + exyx – = 2 sin x cos x
⟹ xexy + exy – = 2 sin x cos x
⟹ (x2exy – 1 ) = sin 2x – xyexy – exy ⟹ =
2. If y = b tan-1 , find .
Soln. We have, tan = + tan
Differentiating both the sides with respect to x, we get

3 If x = a cos2t, y = b sin3 t then, find \frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}.
Soln. x = a cos2t & y = b sin3 t
∴ = – 3a cos2t sin t

8 At which point on the curve = 4, the tangent is equally inclined with the axes ?
Soln. We have = 4, Differentiating with respect to x,
= 0 ⇒ = –
Since, the tangent is equally inclined to the axes, then = ±1
Here, = ±1 ⇒ – = ±1 ⇒ y = x
∴We get = 4 ⇒ = 4 ⇒ x = 4 and y = 4
∴The point is ( 4, 4 ).
9 Find the locus of all the points on the curve y2 = 4a at which the tangent is parallel to x – axis.
Soln. We have y2 = 4a ……..(i)
Differentiating w.r. to x, 2y = 4a
Since, the tangent is parallel to x–axis, = 0
This gives 4a = 0 ⟹ = – 1 ⟹ = 0
∴ From (i) y2 = 4a ( x + 0 ) ⟹ y2 = 4ax, which is the required locus.
10 Find the Equation of normal to the curve x + y = xy, where it cuts x – axis.
Soln. The given curve x + y = xy …… (i)
It cuts the x–axis, when y = 0 ⟹x = 1
∴ The required point is ( 1, 0 ).
Taking log of (i), we get log ( x + y ) = y log x
Differentiating w.r.t x, =
When, x = 1, y = 0, we get =
∴ = – 1. The slop of normal = 1.
Equation of the normal is y – 0 = 1 ( x – 1 ) ⟹ y – x + 1 = 0.
11 Whether the curves x3 – 3xy2 = a2 and 3x2y – y3 = b3…..are orthogonal or not.
Soln. Differentiating (i), 3x2 – 3y2 – 6xy = 0 ⇒ m1 =
(ii), 6xy + 3x2 = 0 ⇒ m2 =
We note that m1 m2 = – 1
∴ The curves (i) and (ii) are orthogonal curves.
12 Find the angle between the curves y = 2 sin2 x and y = cos 2x
Soln. Solving (i) and (ii), we get 2sin2 x = cos 2x = 1 – 2sin2x
⇒ sin2x = ⇒ sin x = ± ⇒ x = ± + nπ, n ∈ I
When x = ± . ∴Point of intersection are
Differentiating (i),
Differentiating (ii),
At the point , m1 = 2 sin = and m2 = – 2 sin
= = –
Similarly,
At the point , m1 = – and m2 =
13. The time period T of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length l is given by T = . Suppose an error in measurement of l is found to be 1 %. Calculate the corresponding error is measurement of T.
Soln. We have, T = log T =
Differentiating we get, = 0 +
