METHOD OF
VARIATION OF PARAMETERS.
This
method is very useful in finding the general solution of the second order
equation
d2y/dx2
+ a1dy/dx+a2 y = X [where 'X' is a function of
x]... (1)
The
complementary function of (1)
C.F
= C1f1 + C2f2 .......(2)
where
C1, C2 are constants and f1 and f2
are functions of x.
Then,
P.I
= P f1 + Q f2 ............(3)

y=
C1f1+ C2f2 + P.I
Note:
The Wronskian of f1, f2 of (1) is given by
