Question
Solve the following equation
$\text{x}\cos^2\text{y dx}=\text{y}\cos^2\text{x dx}$

Answer

We have,

$\text{x}\cos^2\text{y dx}=\text{y}\cos^2\text{x dx}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}}\ \text{dx}=\frac{\text{y}}{\cos^2\text{y}}\ \text{dy}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\sec^2\text{x dx}=\text{y}\sec^2\text{y dy}$

Integrating both sides, we get

$\int\text{x}\sec^2\text{x dx}=\int\text{y}\sec^2\text{y dy}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\int\sec\text{x dx}-\int\Big\{\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})\int\sec^2\text{x dx}\Big\}\text{dx}\\=\text{y}\int\sec^2\text{y dy}-\int\Big\{\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dy}}(\text{y})\int\sec^2\text{y dy}\Big\}\text{dy}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\tan\text{x}-\int\int\tan\text{x dx}=\text{y}\tan\text{y}-\int\tan\text{y dy}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\tan\text{x}-\log|\sec\text{x}|=\text{y}\tan\text{y}-\log|\sec\text{y}|+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\tan\text{x}-\text{y}\tan\text{y}=\log|\sec\text{x}|-\log|\sec\text{y}|+\text{C}$

Hence, $\text{x}\tan\text{x}-\text{y}\tan\text{y}=\log|\sec\text{x}|-\log|\sec\text{y}|+\text{C}$ is the required solution.
