JEE Main 2025 — 3 April, Evening Shift — Question 39

Let y=y(x)y=y(x) be the solution of the differential equation dydx+3(tan⁡2x)y+3y=sec⁡2x,\frac{d y}{d x}+3\left(\tan ^{2} x\right) y+3 y=\sec ^{2} x,

y(0)=13+e3 y(0)=\frac{1}{3}+e^{3}. Then y(π4)y\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) is equal to

  1. Option A:

    43+e3\frac{4}{3}+e^{3}

  2. Option B:

    43\frac{4}{3}

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    23\frac{2}{3}

  4. Option D:

    23+e3\frac{2}{3}+e^{3}

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

dydx+3(tan⁡2x)y+3y=sec⁡2x\frac{d y}{d x}+3\left(\tan ^{2} x\right) y+3 y=\sec ^{2} x

⇒dydx+3sec⁡2xy=sec⁡2x\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}+3 \sec ^{2} x y=\sec ^{2} x

I.F =e∫3sec⁡2xdx=e^{\int 3 \sec ^{2} x d x}

=e3tan⁡x=e^{3 \tan x}

y⋅etan⁡x=∫e3tan⁡x⋅sec⁡2xdx+cy \cdot e^{\tan x}=\int e^{3 \tan x} \cdot \sec ^{2} x d x+c

y⋅e3tan⁡x=e3tan⁡x3+cy \cdot e^{3 \tan x}=\frac{e^{3 \tan x}}{3}+c

Also f(0)=13+e3f(0)=\frac{1}{3}+e^{3}

⇒(13+e3)=13+c\Rightarrow\left(\frac{1}{3}+e^{3}\right)=\frac{1}{3}+c

⇒c=e3\Rightarrow c=e^{3}

∴y.e3tan⁡x=e3tan⁡x3+e3\therefore y . e^{3 \tan x}=\frac{e^{3 \tan x}}{3}+e^{3}

Put x=π4x=\frac{\pi}{4}

ye3=e33+e3⇒y=43y e^{3}=\frac{e^{3}}{3}+e^{3} \Rightarrow y=\frac{4}{3}
