Q.1 Solve the given differential equation by Separation of variables.
Sec^2xdy + cscydx = 0
 
Q.2 Solve the following Differential Equation 
(y^2+3xy)dy = (4x^2+xy)dy,  y(1) = 1
 
Q.3 Determine whether the following Differential Equation is exact. If exact, solve.
(1-2x^2-2y)dy/dx = 4x^3 + 4xy

1. I'm not sure about this... It's the first time I see such a differential equation being given like this... 
 
sec^2 x dy + csc ydx = 0
 
sec^2x dy = -csc y dx
 
\int \frac{1}{-cscy} dy =\int \frac{1}{sec^2x} dx
 
-\int siny\ dy = \int cos^2x\ dx
 
You should be able to solve this now.

please solve Q.2: (y^2+3xy)dy = (4x^2+xy)dy,  y(1) = 1

For Q2, you have a dy on both of them. I believe one should have a dx.
 
Is this correct:
 
(y^{2}+3xy)dx=(4x^{2}+xy)dy? 
 
If this is the correct problem, then it is NOT exact. Use a substitution.
 
Let y=ux, \;\ dy=udx+xdu
 
After making the subs, simplifying and factoring, we get:
 
-ux^{2}(xdu+dx)-4x^{2}(xdu)=0
 
Separate variables and integrate:
 
\int\frac{u+4}{u}du+\int\frac{1}{x}dx=0
 
4ln(u)+u+ln(x)=C
 
Resub u=\frac{y}{x}:
 
4ln(\frac{y}{x})+\frac{y}{x}+ln(x)=C
 
4[ln(y)-ln(x)]+\frac{y}{x}+ln(x)=C
 
-3ln(x)+\frac{y}{x}+4ln(y)=C
 
Now, use the initial condition, y(1)=1, to find C.
 
By letting x=1 and y=1, we get C=1.
 
So, the final solution is \fbox{-3ln(x)+\frac{y}{x}+4ln(y)=1}
 
 
Here is Q3:
 
(1-2x^{2}-2y)\frac{dy}{dx}=4x^{3}+4xy
 
LetM=4x^{3}+4xy and N=2x^{2}+2y-1
 
So that M_{y}=4x=N_{x}
 
From f_{x}=4x^{3}+4xy we get, by integrating:
 
f=x^{4}+2x^{2}y+h(y), \;\ h'(y)=2y-1
 
h(y)=y^{2}-y
 
The solution is then:
 
x^{4}+2x^{2}y+y^{2}-y=C
