y=x sin x
Differentiating both sides of this equation with respect to x, we get:
\(y'=\frac{d}{dx}(x\sin x)\)
\(\Rightarrow y'=\sin x.\frac{d}{dx}(x)+x.\frac{d}{dx}(\sin x)\)
\(y'=\sin x+ \cos x\)
Substituting the value of y' in the given differential equation, we get:
L.H.S.= \(xy'=x(\sin x+ \cos x)\)
=x sin x+x2 cos x
= \(y+x^2. \sqrt{1-\sin^2x}\)
= \(y+x^2\sqrt{1-\bigg(\frac{y}{x}\bigg)^2}\)
=\(y+x\sqrt{y^2-x^2}\)
=R.H.S.
Hence,the given fumction is the solution of the corresponding differential equation.

A carpenter needs to make a wooden cuboidal box, closed from all sides, which has a square base and fixed volume. Since he is short of the paint required to paint the box on completion, he wants the surface area to be minimum.
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :
Find \( \frac{dS}{dx} \).

A relation between involved variables, which satisfy the given differential equation is called its solution. The solution which contains as many arbitrary constants as the order of the differential equation is called the general solution and the solution free from arbitrary constants is called particular solution.
