Class 12 Mathematics - Chapter Differential Equations NCERT Solutions | The degree of the differential equation

Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 12th Mathematics - Chapter Differential Equations. This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Exercise 1, Question 11: the degree of the differential equation begin....
Question 11

The degree of the differential equation

\begin{align}\left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^3\;+ \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2+\;sin\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)\;+ 1=\;0\end{align}

is (A) 3 (B) 2 (C) 1 (D) not defined

Answer

\begin{align}\left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^3\;+ \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2+\;sin\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)\;+ 1=\;0\end{align}

The given differential equation is not a polynomial equation in its derivatives. Therefore, its degree is not defined.

Hence, the correct answer is D.
