Important Tips

• The signum function has an antiderivative on any interval which doesn't contain the point x = 0, and does not possess an anti-derivative
on any interval which contains the point.

• The antiderivative of every odd function is an even function and vice-versa

Integration by Substitution

∫(1) When integrand is a function i.e., f [φ(x)]φ '(x) dx :

∫Here, we put φ(x) = t, so that φ'(x)dx = dt and in that case the integrand is reduced to f(t)dt . In this method,

the integrand is broken into two factors so that one factor can be expressed in terms of the function whose
differential coefficient is the second factor.

Example: 6 ∫ dx = [Rajasthan PET 2002]
Solution: (b) 2 x (1 + x)
(d) None of these
(a) 1 tan−1( x)+c (b) tan−1( x ) + c (c) 2 tan−1( x ) + c
2

∫I = dx , put x = t ⇒ 1 dx = dt
2 x (1 + x) 2x

∫∴ I = dt = tan−1 t + c = tan−1 x +c
1+ t2

(2) When integrand is the product of two factors such that one is the derivative of the others i.e.,

∫I = f'(x). f (x). dx

In this case we put f(x) = t and convert it into a standard integral.

Example: 7 ∫For any natural number m (x3m + x2m + xm)(2x2m + 3xm + 6)1 / mdx, (x > 0) = [IIT 2002]

m+1 m

(c) (2x 3m + 3x 2m + 6x m ) m (d) − (2x 3m + 3x 2m + 6x m ) m+1
6(m + 1) 6(m + 1)


Solution: (a) ∫I = (x 3m−1 + x 2m−1 + x m−1)(2x 3m + 3x 2m + 6x m )1/ m dx

Example: 8 Put 2x 3m + 3x 2m + 6x m = t ⇒ 6m(x 3m−1 + x 2m−1 + x m−1 )dx = dt
Solution: (b)
Example: 9 1 1 t 1 +1 1
Solution: (a) 6m 6m m 6(m +

Integration by Parts .

(1) When integrand involves more than one type of functions : We may solve such integrals by a rule
which is known as integration by parts. We know that,

d dv du udv vdu
dx dx
∫ ∫ ∫dx
(uv) = u +v ⇒ d(uv) = + ⇒ d (uv) = udv + vdu

{ddxu . vdx}dx i.e., the integral of the product of two
∫ ∫ ∫ ∫If u and v are two functions of x, then
u v dx = u v dx −

I II

functions = (First function) × (Integral of second function) – Integral of {(Differentiation of first function) × (Integral of

second function)}

Integration with the help of above rule is called integration by parts. Before applying this rule proper choice of first
and second function is necessary. Normally we use the following methods :

(i) In the product of two functions, one of the function is not directly integrable (i.e.,
log| x|, sin−1 x, cos−1 x, tan−1 x ......etc), then we take it as the first function and the remaining function is taken as the
second function.

(ii) If there is no other function, then unity is taken as the second function e.g. In the integration of

∫ ∫sin−1 x dx, log x dx,1 is taken as the second function.

(iii) If both of the function are directly integrable then the first function is chosen in such a way that the derivative
of the function thus obtained under integral sign is easily integrable.

Usually, we use the following preference order for the first function. (Inverse, Logarithmic, Algebraic,
Trigonometric, exponential). This rule is simply called as “I LATE”.

∫(1) Integrals of the form a sinx + b cos x dx : Such rational functions of sin x and cos x may be
c sinx + d cos x

integrated by expressing the numerator of the integrand as follows:

Numerator = M (Diff. of denominator)+N (Denominator)

i.e., a sin x + b cos x = M d (c sin x + d cos x) + N(c sin x+d cos x)
dx

The arbitary constants M and N are determined by comparing the coefficients of sin x and cos x from two sides

of the above identity. Then, the given integral is

a sin x + b cos x M(c cos x − d sin x) + N(c sin x + d cos x) dx c cos x − d sin x

i.e.,(c sin x + b cos x + q) = M(c sin x + d cos x + r) + N(c cos x − d sin x) + P.

where M, N, P are constants to be determined by comparing the coefficients of sin x,cos x and constant term

on both sides.

Integration of Rational Functions by using Partial Fractions .

(1) Proper rational functions: Functions of the form f(x) , where f(x) and g(x) are polynomial and
g(x)

g(x) ≠ 0, are called rational functions of x.

If degree of f(x) is less than degree of g(x), then f(x) is called a proper rational function.
g(x)

(2) Improper rational function : If degree of f(x) is greater than or equal to degree of g(x), then f(x) , is
g(x)

called an improper rational function and every improper rational function can be transformed to a proper rational
function by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

For example, x3 is an improper rational function and can be expressed as (x + 5) + 19x − 30 ,
x2 − 5x + 6 x2 − 5x + 6

which is the sum of a polynomial (x + 5) and a proper function 19x − 30 .
x2 − 5x + 6

(3) Partial fractions: Any proper rational function can be broken up into a group of different rational

fractions, each having a simple factor of the denominator of the original rational function. Each such fraction is

called a partial fraction.

If by some process, we can break a given rational function f(x) into different fractions, whose denominators
g(x)

are the factors of g(x), then the process of obtaining them is called the resolution or decomposition of f(x) into its
g(x)

partial fractions.

Depending on the nature of the factors of the denominator, the following cases arise.

Case I: When the denominator consists of non-repeated linear factors: To each linear factor (x − a)

occurring once in the denominator of a proper fraction, there corresponds a single partial fraction of the form

x A a , where A is a constant to be determined.


Case II: When the denominator consists of linear factors, some repeated: To each linear factor

(x − a) occurring r times in the denominator of a proper rational function, there corresponds a sum of r partial

fractions of the form.

A1 + (x A2 + ........... + (x Ar
x−a − a)2 − a)r

Where A' s are constants to be determined. Of course, Ar is not equal to zero.

Case III: When the denominator consists of quadratic factors: To each irreducible non repeated

quadratic factor ax 2 + bx + c, there corresponds a partial fraction of the form ax Ax +B c , where A and B are
2+ bx +

constants to be determined.

To each irreducible quadratic factor ax 2 + bx + c occurring r times in the denominator of a proper rational
fraction there corresponds a sum of r partial fractions of the form

A1 x + B1 + A2 x + B2 + ................. + Ar x + Br
ax 2 + bx + c (ax 2 + bx + c)2 (ax 2 + bx + c)r

Where, A's and B's are constants to be determined.

(4) General methods of finding the constants

(i) In the given proper fraction, first of all factorize the denominator.

(ii) Express the given proper fraction into its partial fractions according to rules given above and multiply both
the sides by the denominator of the given fraction.

(iii) Equate the coefficients of like powers of x in the resulting identity and solve the equations so obtained
simultaneously to find the various constant is short method. Sometimes, we substitute particular values of the
variable x in the identity obtained after clearing of fractions to find some or all the constants. For non-repeated
linear factors, the values of x used as those for which the denominator of the corresponding partial fractions become
zero.

Note :  If the given fraction is improper, then before finding partial fractions, the given fraction must be

expressed as sum of a polynomial and a proper fraction by division.

(5) Special cases: Some times a suitable substitution transform the given function to a rational fraction which
can be integrated by breaking it into partial fractions.

Integration of Trigonometric Functions .

∫(1) Integral of the form sinm x cosn x dx : (i) To evaluate the integrals of the form

∫I = sinm x cosn x dx, where m and n are rational numbers.

(a) Substitute sin x = t, if n is odd;

(b) Substitute cos x = t, if m is odd;
(c) Substitute tan x = t, if m + n is a negative even integer; and

(d) Substitute cot x = t, if 1 (n − 1) is an integer.
2

(e) If m and n are rational numbers and  m + n − 2  is a negative integer, then substitution cos x = t or
 2 

tan x = t is found suitable.

∫(ii) Integrals of the form R(sin x,cos x)dx, where R is a rational function of sin x and cos x, are transformed

into integrals of a rational function by the substitution tan x = t, where −π < x < π. This is the so called universal
2

substitution. Sometimes it is more convenient to make the substitution cot x =t for 0< x< 2π .
2

The above substitution enables us to integrate any function of the form R(sin x,cos x). However, in practice, it
sometimes leads to extremely complex rational function. In some cases, the integral can be simplified by:

∫(a) Substituting sin x = t, if the integral is of the form R(sin x)cos x dx.

∫(b) Substituting cos x = t, if the integral is of the form R(cos x)sin x dx.

(c) Substituting tan x = t, i.e., dx = 1 dt 2 , if the integral is dependent only on tan x.

(d) Substituting cos x = t , if R(− sin x, cos x) = −R(sin x, cos x)

(e) Substituting sin x = t , if R(sin x,− cos x) = −R(sin x, cos x)

(f) Substituting tan x = t , if R(− sin x,− cos x) = −R(sin x, cos x)

Integrals using Euler's substitution

∫Integrals of the form f(x), (ax 2 + bx + c) dx are calculated with the aid of one of the there Euler substitution:

(1) ax 2 + bx + c = t ± x a , if a > 0.

(2) ax 2 + bx + c = t x ± c, if c > 0.

(3) ax 2 + bc + c = (x − α) t, if ax 2 + bx + c = a(x − α)(x − β ), i.e., if x is real root of (ax 2 + bx + c).

Note :  The Euler substitution often lead to rather some calculations, therefore they should be applied only

when it is difficult to find another method for calculating the given integral.

Some Integrals which can not be Found

Any function continuous on interval (a, b) has an antiderivative in that interval. In other words, there exists a
function F(x) such that F'(x) = f(x).

However not every antiderivative F(x), even when it exists is expressible in closed form in terms of elementary

functions such as polynomials, trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential etc. function. Then we say that such
antiderivatives or integrals "can not be found." Some typical examples are:

∫(i) dx ∫(ii) e x2 dx ∫(iii) x2 dx

Scalar Triple Product .
If a,b,c are three vectors, then their scalar triple product is defined as the dot product of two vectors a and b × c . It

is generally denoted by a . (b × c) or [abc]. It is read as box product of a, b, c . Similarly other scalar triple products can
be defined as (b × c).a,(c × a).b . By the property of scalar product of two vectors we can say, a.(b× c) = (a × b).c

(1) Geometrical interpretation of scalar triple product : The scalar triple product of three vectors is equal
to the volume of the parallelopiped whose three coterminous edges are represented by the given vectors. a,b,c
form a right handed system of vectors. Therefore (a × b).c = [abc]= volume of the parallelopiped, whose
coterminous edges are a, b and c.

(2) Properties of scalar triple product
(i) If a,b,c are cyclically permuted, the value of scalar triple product remains the same. i.e.,

(a × b).c = (b × c).a = (c × a).b or [a b c] = [b c a] = [c a b]

(ii) The change of cyclic order of vectors in scalar triple product changes the sign of the scalar triple product
but not the magnitude i.e., [a b c] = −[b a c] = −[c b a] = −[a c b]

(iii) In scalar triple product the positions of dot and cross can be interchanged provided that the cyclic order of
the vectors remains same i.e., (a × b).c = a.(b × c)

(iv) The scalar triple product of three vectors is zero if any two of them are equal.
(v) For any three vectors a, b, c and scalar λ , [λ a b c]= λ[a b c]

(vi) The scalar triple product of three vectors is zero if any two of them are parallel or collinear.
(vii) If a, b, c, d are four vectors, then [(a + b) c d] = [a c d] + [bcd]

(viii) The necessary and sufficient condition for three non-zero non-collinear vectors a,b,c to be coplanar is

that [a b c] = 0 i.e., a,b,c are coplanar ⇔ [a bc] = 0 .

(ix) Four points with position vectors a, b, c and d will be coplanar, if [a b c] + [d c a] + [d a b] = [a b c] .

(3) Scalar triple product in terms of components
(i) If a = a1i + a2j + a3k , b = b1i + b2j + b3k and c = c1i + c2j + c3k be three vectors.

a1 b1 c1
Then, [a b c] = a2 b2 c 2

a3 b3 c3

a1 a2 a3
(ii) If a = a1l + a2m + a3n, b = b1l + b2m + b3n and c = c1l + c2m + c3n , then [a b c] = b1 b2 b3 [l m n]

c1 c2 c3

(iii) For any three vectors a,b and c

(a) [a + b b + c c + a] = 2[a b c] (b) [a − b b − c c − a] = 0 (c) [a × b b × c c × a] = [a b c]2

(4) Tetrahedron : A tetrahedron is a three-dimensional figure formed by four triangle OABC is a tetrahedron

with ∆ABC as the base. OA,OB,OC, AB, BC and CA are known as edges of the A(a)

tetrahedron. OA, BC;OB,CA and OC, AB are known as the pairs of opposite b a
B(b) O
edges. A tetrahedron in which all edges are equal, is called a regular tetrahedron.
Properties of tetrahedron c
(i) If two pairs of opposite edges of a tetrahedron are perpendicular, then
C(c)
the opposite edges of the third pair are also perpendicular to each other.

(ii) In a tetrahedron, the sum of the squares of two opposite edges is the same for each pair.

(iii) Any two opposite edges in a regular tetrahedron are perpendicular.

Volume of a tetrahedron

(i) The volume of a tetrahedron = 1 (area of the base) (corresponding altitude)

3 2 6

= 1 (AB × AC). ED = 1 [ AB AC EA + AD] = 1 [ AB AC AD] .
6 6 6

Because AB, AC, EA are coplanar, so [AB AC EA] = 0
(ii) If a,b,c are position vectors of vertices A, B and C with respect to O, then volume of tetrahedron

OABC = 1 [a b c]
6

(iii) If a,b,c,d are position vectors of vertices A, B, C, D of a tetrahedron ABCD, then

its volume = 1 [b − a c − a d − a]

(5) Reciprocal system of vectors : Let a,b,c be three non-coplanar vectors, and let

a′ = b×c , b′ = c×a , c′ = a×b .
[abc] [abc] [abc]

a′, b′,c′ are said to form a reciprocal system of vectors for the vectors a,b,c .

If a, b, c and a′, b′,c′ form a reciprocal system of vectors, then

(i) a.a′ = b.b′ = c.c′ = 1 (ii) a.b′ = a.c′ = 0;b.c′ = b.a′ = 0;c.a′ = c.b′ = 0

(iii) [a′ b′c′] = [a 1 c] (v) a,b,c are non-coplanar iff so are a′,b′,c′ .

Example: 44 If u, v and w are three non-coplanar vectors, then (u + v − w).[(u − v) × (v − w)] equals [AIEEE 2003]

Solution: (c)

Example: 46 = [u u v] + [v u v] − [w u v] − [u u w] – [v u w] + [w u w] + [u v w] + [v v w] − [w v w]
Solution: (b) = 0 + 0 − [u v w] − 0 + [u v w] + 0 + [u v w] + 0 − 0 = [u v w] = u.(v × w) .

Example: 47 The value of ‘a’ so that the volume of parallelopiped formed by i + aj + k ; j + ak and ai + k becomes minimum is

dV = 3a2 − 1 ; d2V = 6a ; dV = 0 ⇒ 3a2 − 1 = 0 ⇒ a = ± 1
da da2 da 3

At a = 1 , d2V = 6 >0
3 da2 3

∴ V is minimum at a = 1
3

If a, b, c be any three non-zero non-coplanar vectors, then any vector r is equal to

(a) z a + xb + yc (b) xa + yb + zc (c) ya + zb + xc (d) None of these

Where x = [r b c] , y= [r c a] , z = [r a b]
[a b c] [a b c] [a b c]

As a, b, c are three non-coplanar vectors, we may assume r = αa + β b + γ c

[r b c] = (α a + β b+γ c).(b × c) = α{a .(b × c)} = α[a b c] ⇒ α = [r b c]
[a b c]

But x= [r b c] ; ∴α = x
[abc]

Similarly β = y, γ = z ; ∴ r = x a + y b + zc .

If a, b, c are non-coplanar vectors and λ is a real number, then the vectors a + 2b + 3c, λb + 4c and (2λ − 1)c are non-

coplanar for [AIEEE 2004]

(a) No value of λ (b) All except one value of λ

(c) All except two values of λ (d) All values of λ

As a, b, c are non-coplanar vectors. ∴ [abc] ≠ 0

Now, a + 2b + 3c, λb + 4c and (2λ − 1)c will be non-coplanar iff (a + 2b + 3c).{(λb + 4c)×(2λ − 1)c} ≠ 0

i.e., (a + 2b + 3c).{λ(2λ − 1)(b × c)} ≠ 0 i.e., λ(2λ − 1)[a b c] ≠ 0

∴ λ ≠ 0, 1
2

Thus, given vectors will be non-coplanar for all values of λ except two values: λ =0 and 1 .
2

Example: 48 x, y, z are distinct scalars such that [xa + yb + zc, xb + yc + za, xc + ya + zb] = 0 where a, b, c are non-coplanar vectors then

(a) x + y + z = 0 (b) xy + yz + zx = 0 (c) x 3 + y3 + z3 = 0 (d) x 2 + y2 + z 2 = 0
a, b, c are non-coplanar
Solution: (a)

∴ [a b c] ≠ 0

Now, [xa + yb + zc, xb + yc + za, xc + ya + zb] = 0

⇒ (xa + yb + zc).{(xb + yc + za)× (xc + ya + zb)} = 0 ⇒ (xa + yb + zc).{(x 2 − yz)(b × c) + (z 2 − xy)(a × b) + (y2 − zx)(c × a)} = 0

⇒ x(x2 − yz)[abc] + y(y2 − zx)[b c a] + z (z2 − xy)[c a b] = 0 ⇒ (x3 − xyz)[a b c] + (y3 − xyz)[abc] + (z3 − xyz)[abc] = 0

As [abc] ≠ 0 , x 3 + y3 + z3 − 3xyz = 0 ⇒ (x + y + z)(x 2 + y2 + z 2 − xy − yz − zx) = 0

⇒ 1 (x + y + z) {(x − y)2 + (y − z)2 + (z − x)2} = 0 ⇒ x+y+z =0 or x=y=z
2

But x, y, z are distinct. ∴ x + y + z = 0 .

Vector Triple Product.
Let a,b,c be any three vectors, then the vectors a × (b × c) and (a × b) × c are called vector triple product of a,b,c .

Thus, a ×(b × c) = (a .c) b − (a . b)c

(1) Properties of vector triple product
(i) The vector triple product a × (b×c) is a linear combination of those two vectors which are within brackets.

(ii) The vector r = a × (b × c) is perpendicular to a and lies in the plane of b and c .

(iii) The formula a × (b × c) = (a .c) b − (a . b)c is true only when the vector outside the bracket is on the left

most side. If it is not, we first shift on left by using the properties of cross product and then apply the same formula.

Thus, (b × c)× a = −{a × (b × c)} = − {(a .c) b − (a . b)c} = (a . b)c − (a .c) b

(iv) If a = a1i + a2j + a3k , b = b1i + b2j + b3k and c = c1i + c2j + c3k

Note :  Vector triple product is a vector quantity.

As a and b are not parallel, a.c= 0 and cos θ + 1 =0

Example: 50 If a = i + j + k, b = i + j, c = i and (a × b) × c = λa + µ b , then λ + µ = [EAMCT 2003]

Example: 51
Solution: (c) ∴ λ + µ = a . c − b . c = (a − b). c = {(i + j + k) − (i + j)}.i = k . i = 0 .

If a, b, c and p, q, r are reciprocal system of vectors, then a × p + b × q + c × r equals

p= b × c , q = c×a , r= a×b
[a b c] [a b c] [a b c]

a × p = a × (b × c) = (a . c) b − (a.b)c
[a b c] [a b c]

Similarly b×q = (a.b)c − (b.c)a and c× r = (b . c) a − (a . c) b
[a b c] [a b c]

∴ a×p + b×q + c× r = [a 1 c] {(a . c ) b − (a . b)c + (a . b) c − (b . c) a + (b . c) a − (a . c) b} = [a 1 c] × 0 = 0

Scalar product of Four Vectors.

(a × b).(c× d) is a scalar product of four vectors. It is the dot product of the vectors a × b and c × d .

It is a scalar triple product of the vectors a, b and c× d as well as scalar triple product of the vectors a × b, c and d .

(a × b).(c × d)= a.c a.d
b.c b.d

Vector product of Four Vectors.
(1) (a × b)× (c × d) is a vector product of four vectors.

It is the cross product of the vectors a × b and c × d .
(2) a × {b × (c × d)},{(a × b)× c}× d are also different vector products of four vectors a, b, c and d .

Example: 52 a × [a × (a × b)] is equal to [AMU 2001]
(a) (a × a).(b × a)
(b) a.(b × a) − b.(a × b) (c) [a.(a × b)]a (d) (a.a)(b × a)

Solution: (d) a ×[a × (a × b)] = a ×[(a.b)a − (a.a)b] = (a.b)(a × a) − (a.a) (a × b) = (a . b) 0 + (a . a)(b × a) = (a.a)(b × a)

Example: 53 [b × c c × a a × b] is equal to [MP PET 2004]

(a) a × (b × c) (b) 2[a b c] (c) [a b c]2 (d) [a b c]

Solution: (c) [(b × c)( c × a),(a × b)] = (b × c).{[ c × a)× (a × b)} = (b × c).{[c a b] a − [a a b]c}

= (b × c).{[a b c]a − 0} = [b c a][abc] = [abc]2

Example: 54 Let the vectors a, b, c and d be such that (a × b)× (c × d) = 0 . Let P1 and P2 be planes determined by pair of vectors

a, b and c, d respectively. Then the angle between P1 and P2 is [IIT Screening 2000]

(a) 0o (b) π (c) π (d) π
4 3 2

Solution: (a) (a × b)× (c × d) = 0 ⇒ (a × b) is parallel to (c × d)

Hence plane P1 , determined by vectors a, b is parallel to the plane P2 determined by c, d

∴ Angle between P1 and P2 = 0 (As the planes P1 and P2 are parallel).

Vector Equations.

Solving a vector equation means determining an unknown vector or a number of vectors satisfying the given
conditions. Generally, to solve a vector equation, we express the unknown vector as a linear combination of three
known non-coplanar vectors and then we determine the coefficients from the given conditions.

If a, b are two known non-collinear vectors, then a, b, a × b are three non-coplanar vectors.

Thus, any vector r = xa + yb + z(a × b) where x, y, z are unknown scalars.

Example: 55 If a = i + j + k, a.b = 1 and a × b = j − k , then b = [IIT Screening 2004]

(a) i (b) i − j + k (c) 2j − k (d) 2i

Solution: (a) Let b = b1i + b2 j + b3k

Example: 56 i jk
Solution: (a)
Now, j − k = a × b = 1 1 1 ⇒ b3 − b2 = 0,b1 − b3 = 1,b2 − b1 = −1 ⇒ b3 = b2,b1 = b2 + 1
b1 b2 b3

Now, a.b = 1 ⇒ b1 + b2 + b3 = 1 ⇒ 3b2 + 1 = 1 ⇒ b2 = 0 ⇒ b1 = 1,b3 = 0 . Thus b = i

The point of intersection of r × a = b × a and r × b = a × b where a = i + j and b = 2i − k is [Orissa JEE 2004]

(a) 3i + j − k (b) 3i − k (c) 3i + 2j + k (d) None of these

We have r × b = a × b and r × a = b × a
Adding, r × (a + b) = (a × b) + (b × a)

⇒ r × (a + b) = 0 ⇒ r is parallel to a + b

∴ r = λ(a + b) = λ{(i + j) + (2i − k)} = λ {3i + j − k}

Example: 57 For λ = 1 , r = 3i + j − k [IIT 1995]
Let a = i − j, b = j − k,c = k − i . If dˆ is a unit vector such that a . d = 0 = [b c d] , then dˆ is equal to

Example: 58 Let p, q, r be three mutually perpendicular vectors of the same magnitude. If a vector x satisfies equation

p ×|(x − q)× p| +q×|(x − r)× q | + r ×|(x − p)× r | = 0 , then x is given by [IIT 1997]

(a) 1 (p + q − 2r) (b) 1 (p + q + r) (c) 1 (p + q + r) (d) 1 (2p + q − r)

Solution: (b) Let | p| =|q| =| r | = k

∴ p = k pˆ, q = k qˆ, r = k ˆr

Let x = α pˆ + β qˆ + γ ˆr

Now, p × {x − q}× p} = (p.p)(x − q) − {p.(x − q)}p = |p|2 (x − q) − {(p. x) − p.q}p

= k2(x − q) − {| p|(pˆ . xˆ) − 0}| p|pˆ = k 2(x − q) – | p|2 (pˆ . xˆ) pˆ = k2{x − q − α pˆ)

∴ p × {(x − q)× p} + q × (x − r)× q} + r × {(x − p)× r} = 0

⇒ k 2{x − q − αp + x − r − βq + x − p − γr} = 0 ⇒ 3x − (p + q + r) − (αp + βq + γr) = 0

⇒ 3x − (p + q + r) − x = 0 ⇒ 2x − (p + q + r) = 0

∴ x = 1 (p + q + r)

We have, |a|=|b|= 1

c = α a + βb + γ (a × b) ......(i)

Taking dot product by a , a.c = α|a|2 +β(a.b) + γ [a a b]

⇒ |a|.|c|cosθ = α.1 + 0 + 0 ⇒ 1.|c|.cosθ = α

As |c| = 1 ; ∴ α = cosθ

Taking dot product of (i) by b
b . c = b . a + β | b|2 + γ [b a b] ⇒ | b||c|cos θ = 0 + β .1 + 0

∴ β = 1.1.cosθ = cosθ

|c|2 = 1 ⇒ α 2 + β 2 + γ 2 = 1 ⇒ cos2 θ + cos2 θ + γ 2 = 1

∴ γ 2 = 1 − 2cos2 θ = − cos 2θ

Hence, α = β = cosθ ,γ 2 = − cos 2θ

Differential-equation

Many of the practical problems in physics and engineering can be converted into differential equations. The
solution of differential equations is, therefore of paramount importance. This chapter deals with some elementary
aspects of differential equations. These are addressed through simple application of differential and integral calculus.

There are two important aspects of differential equation, which have just been touched in this chapter. How to
formulate a problem as a differential equation is the one, and the other is how to solve it.

Definition .

An equation involving independent variable x, dependent variable y and the differential coefficients

dy , d2 y ,........ is called differential equation.

(1) Order of a differential equation : The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest
derivative occurring in the differential equation. For example, the order of above differential equations are 1,1,4
and 2 respectively.

Note :  The order of a differential equation is a positive integer. To determine the order of a differential

equation, it is not needed to make the equation free from radicals.

(2) Degree of a differential equation : The degree of a differential equation is the degree of the highest
order derivative, when differential coefficients are made free from radicals and fractions. In other words, the degree
of a differential equation is the power of the highest order derivative occurring in differential equation when it is
written as a polynomial in differential coefficients.

Note :  The definition of degree does not require variables x, y, t etc. to be free from radicals and

fractions. The degree of above differential equations are 1, 1, 3 and 2 respectively.

Example: 1 The order and degree of the differential equation y = x dy + a2  dy 2 + b2 are
Solution: (a) dx  dx 

Example: 2 (a) 1, 2 (b) 2, 1 (c) 1, 1 (d) 2, 2

Clearly, highest order derivative involved is dy , having order 1.
dx

Expressing the above differential equation as a polynomial in derivative, we have  y − x dy  2 = a 2  dy  2 + b2
 dx   dx 

(x2 − a2)  dy  2 dy + y2 − b2
 dx  dx
i.e., − 2xy = 0

In this equation, the power of highest order derivative is 2. So its degree is 2.
