Q.6 (b) If \(y=e^{m\sin^{-1}x}\), prove that \((1-x^2)y_{n+2}-(2n+1)xy_{n+1}-(n^2+m^2)y_n=0\)
Q.6 (b) If \(y=e^{m\sin^{-1}x}\), prove that \((1-x^2)y_{n+2}-(2n+1)xy_{n+1}-(n^2+m^2)y_n=0\)
Best answer
\(y_1=e^{m\sin^{-1}x}\cdot\frac m{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\Rightarrow\sqrt{1-x^2}\,y_1=my\Rightarrow(1-x^2)y_1^2=m^2y^2\).
Differentiate: \((1-x^2)2y_1y_2-2xy_1^2=2m^2yy_1\); divide by \(2y_1\): \((1-x^2)y_2-xy_1-m^2y=0\).
Leibnitz's theorem (n times):
\((1-x^2)y_{n+2}+n(-2x)y_{n+1}+\frac{n(n-1)}2(-2)y_n-[xy_{n+1}+ny_n]-m^2y_n=0\)
\((1-x^2)y_{n+2}-(2n+1)xy_{n+1}-(n^2+m^2)y_n=0\) (proved).
