Hi,
I have a problem that I can't solve. Please help me.
Here is it:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verify that the function y = -(cos x) ln (sec x + tan x) is an explicit solution of the differential equation y'' + y = tan x. Assume an appropriate interval I of definition.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, I don't understand the meaning of "Assume an appropriate interval I of definition".
Second, I tried to differnetiate y = -(cos x) ln (sec x + tan x) twice in order to get y'' and replace it in the function but I couldn't. It's really difficult and terribly long. I think I'm doing it in the wrong way. Please help me in that.
Thanks.
