If $ x^2 + y^2 = 1$, then

Updated On: Aug 24, 2023
  • $ yy" - 2 (y' )^2 + 1 = 0 $
  • $ yy" + (y' )^2 + 1 = 0 $
  • $ yy" + (y' )^2 - 1 = 0 $
  • $ yy" + 2 (y' )^2 + 1 = 0 $

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The correct answer is:\((y')^2+yy''+1=0\)
Given that;
\(x^2+y^2=1\)
Now differentiate w.r.t ‘x’
\(\therefore 2x+2y\frac{dy}{dx}=0\)
again differentiate w.r.t ‘x’
\(\therefore 2+2(y\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2)=0\)
\(1+yf''(x)+(y')^2=0\)
\((y')^2+yy''+1=0\)
differentiate

Continuity

A function is said to be continuous at a point x = a,  if

limx→a

f(x) Exists, and

limx→a

f(x) = f(a)

It implies that if the left hand limit (L.H.L), right hand limit (R.H.L) and the value of the function at x=a exists and these parameters are equal to each other, then the function f is said to be continuous at x=a.

If the function is undefined or does not exist, then we say that the function is discontinuous.

Conditions for continuity of a function: For any function to be continuous, it must meet the following conditions:

  • The function f(x) specified at x = a, is continuous only if f(a) belongs to real number.
  • The limit of the function as x approaches a, exists.
  • The limit of the function as x approaches a, must be equal to the function value at x = a.
