  4. Option D:

    9

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

Differential equation :- xcos⁡yxdydx=ycos⁡yx+x\begin{aligned}& x \cos \frac{y}{x} \frac{d y}{d x}=y \cos \frac{y}{x}+x &\end{aligned}

cos⁡yx[xdydx−y]=x \cos \frac{y}{x}\left[x \frac{d y}{d x}-y\right]=x

Divide both sides by x2x^{2}

cos⁡yx(xdydx−yx2)=1x\cos \frac{y}{x}\left(\frac{x \frac{d y}{d x}-y}{x^{2}}\right)=\frac{1}{x}

Let yx=t\frac{y}{x}=t

cos⁡t(dtdx)=1x\cos t\left(\frac{d t}{d x}\right)=\frac{1}{x} cost⁡dt=1xdx\operatorname{cost} \mathrm{dt}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{x}} \mathrm{dx}

Integrating both sides sin⁡t=ln⁡∣x∣+c\begin{aligned}& \sin t=\ln |x|+c &\end{aligned}

sin⁡yx=ln⁡∣x∣+c \sin \frac{y}{x}=\ln |x|+c

Using⁡y(1)=π3\operatorname{Using} \mathrm{y}(1)=\frac{\pi}{3},

we get c=32\mathrm{c}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

So, α=3⇒α2=3\alpha=\sqrt{3} \Rightarrow \alpha^{2}=3
