Find a one-parameter family of solutions of the following differential equation, indicating carefully the interval in which the solutions are valid:
dy over dx space equals space fraction numerator 1 plus straight y squared over denominator 1 plus straight x squared end fraction

Solution
The given differential equation is
                            dy over dx space equals space fraction numerator 1 plus straight y squared over denominator 1 plus straight x squared end fraction
Separating the variables,  we get,
                      fraction numerator 1 over denominator 1 plus straight y squared end fraction dy space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator 1 plus straight x squared end fraction dx
Integrating,   integral fraction numerator 1 over denominator 1 plus straight y squared end fraction dy space equals space integral fraction numerator 1 over denominator 1 plus straight x squared end fraction dx
therefore space space space tan to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight y space equals space tan to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight x plus straight c is the solution.
