    The differential equation of the family of the curves \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2ax=0\]is

    A) \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}-2ax=0\]

    B)  \[{{y}^{2}}-{{x}^{2}}=2xyy\]

    C)  \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2y=0\]

    D)  none of the above

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The given equation is \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2ax=0\]                      ?(i) On differentiating Eq. (i) with respect to\[x,\] we get \[2x+2y\frac{dy}{dx}-2a=0\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[a=x+y\frac{dy}{dx}\] On putting the value of a in Eq. (i), we get \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2x\left( x+y\frac{dy}{dx} \right)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2{{x}^{2}}-2xy\frac{dy}{dx}=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{y}^{2}}-{{x}^{2}}-2xyy=0\]    \[\left( \because \,y=\frac{dy}{dx} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{y}^{2}}-{{x}^{2}}=2xyy\] Which is required differential equation. Note: To find the differential equation of any given equation, we have to remove parameters.
