Solution

The equation of the family of ellipses having centre at the origin and foci on the y-axis, is given by `x^2/"a"^2 + y^2/"b"^2` = 1  .......(1)

where b > a and a, b are the parameters or a,b are arbitrary constant.

Differentiating equation (1) twice successively, because we have two arbitrary constant, we get

`(2x)/"a"^2 + (2y)/"b"^2 ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0

`2(x/"a"^2 + y/"b"^2 ("d"y)/("d"x))` = 0

`x/"a"^2 + y/"b"^2 ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0  .......(2)

Again differentiating equation 2) w.r.t x,

`1/"a"^2 + y/"b"^2 ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + ("d"y)/("d"x) ("d"y)/("d"x  "b"^2)` = 0

`1/"a"^2 + y/"b"^2 ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + (("d"y)/("d"x))^2 1/"b"^2` = 0

Multiply by x

`x/"a"^2 + x/"b"^2 (("d"^2y)/("d"x^2)) + (("d"y)/("d"x))^2 x/"b"^2` = 0   .......(3)

Equation (3) – (2) we get

`x/"a"^2 + (xy)/"b"^2 (("d"^2y)/("d"x^2)) + (("d"y)/("d"x))^2 (x/"b"^2) - (x/"a"^2 + y/"b"^2 ("d"y)/("d"x))` = 0

`(xy)/"b"^2 (("d"^2y)/("d"x^2)) + (("d"y)/("d"x))^2 x/"b"^2 - y/"b"^2 ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0

Taking `1/"b"^2` outside, we get

`1/"b"^2 [xy ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + x(("d"y)/("d"x))^2 - y("d"y)/("d"x)]` = 0

`xy ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + x(("d"y)/("d"x))^2 - y("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0 is the required differential equation.
