    The general solution of the differential equation \[\frac{dy}{dx}=\cot x\cot y\] is        [AISSE 1983; MP PET 1994]

    A)                 \[\cos x=c\,\cos \text{ec}y\] 

    B)                 \[\sin x=c\sec y\]

    C)                 \[\sin x=c\cos y\]   

    D)                 \[\cos x=c\sin y\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[\frac{dy}{dx}=\cot x\cot y\] Þ \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\tan ydy=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\cot xdx}}\]                    Þ \[\log \sec y=\log \sin x+\log c\]                                 Þ \[\sec y=c\sin x\]or\[c\sec y=\sin x\].
