P Scanned with CamScannerirst-Order OD} First ler ODEs 147 Thus the most general first-order linear differential equation is of the form y 4 EtPy=Q or y'+Py=O (y= Z) fl) where P and 2 are functions of x. It is understood that, in Eq. (1), y is the dependent variable. If the equation begins with, say, /(x) y', then divide by /() to have the standard form (1) with y’ as the first term, which is practical, To solve Eq.

Since the slope of curve is given by the derivative, two families of. curves FO %e)=0 and G(x, &)=0 will be orthogonal ifthe product of their derivatives is ~1, Procedure for Determining the ort We now outline the procedure for determi FRY) =0 hogonal Trajectories ining the orthogonal trajectories for a given family Scanned with CamScannerFirst-Order ODEs ofcurves in the xy-plane, Here each curve in the family is specified by some value js said to represent a one-parameter family of curves, and c is called the pa family: 1.67 ofc.
