Correct answer
D-π223

Step-by-step explanation

The given D.E. can be written as

dydx-ytanx=6xsecx   ...i, which is a liner differential equation of the form dydx+Py=Q, where P&Q are the function of x or constants.

Here, P=-tanx & Q=6xsecx

Integrating factor =ePdx=e-tanx dx

=e--lncosx=elncosx=cosx

And, the solution of the linear differential equation is,

yI.F.=QI.F.dx+c

 ycosx=6xsecxcosxdx

ycosx=6xdx

y·cosx=3x2+c   ...ii

Given yπ3=0, hence

0=3π32+c

c=-π23

Thus, the curve is, y·cosx=3x2-π23

Now, put x=π6, to get

yπ6·cosπ6=3π62-π23

yπ632=3π236-π23

yπ632=π212-π23

yπ632=-π24

yπ6=-π223.
