Math Problem Statement
Solution
To find a particular solution of the differential equation
using the Method of Undetermined Coefficients, we can follow these steps:
-
Identify the form of the particular solution: Since the non-homogeneous term on the right side, , is a combination of sine and cosine functions with the same frequency (3), we assume a particular solution of the form:
where and are constants to be determined.
-
Calculate derivatives of : First derivative:
Second derivative:
-
Substitute into the differential equation: Substitute and into the left side of the original equation:
Simplifying this expression gives:
