Adding these two equations, we get 2u
= 1, from which u
=
. Substituting this
2
2

value for u
back into equation (2) gives
2
sin 2t
u
cos 2t +
= 0

which we solve to get
tan 2t
u
=

Integrating u
and u
, we get

Substituting these functions back into our original solution, we get the general solution
ln(sec 2t)
t sin 2t
y = c
cos 2t
