CBSEENMA12032909

Represent the following family of curves by forming the corresponding differential equations (a. b: parameters).
straight x squared plus straight y squared space space equals space straight a squared

Solution
The equation of curve is
x2 + y2 = a2
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get,
2 straight x plus 2 straight y space dy over dx space equals space 0             or           straight x plus straight y dy over dx equals 0
which is required differential equation.
