Tutorial 3: MA 406: Partial Differential Equations

1. Find a partial differential equation by eliminating the arbitrary constants ’a’ and ’b’ from the
following equations:-

(a) z = (x + a)(y + b)
h y i2
(e) 4z = ax + + b
a
(b) 2z = (ax + y)2 + b
(f) z = ax + bxy + cy 2
2
2 2 2
(c) ax + by + z = 1
(g) z = Aept sin px, A and p are arbitrary
2 2 2 2
(d) x + y = (z − a) tan b constant

2. Find a PDE by eliminating the arbitrary equation from the following equations:-

(a) x + y + z = f (x2 + y 2 + z 2 ) (e) z = f (x cos α + y sin α − at) +



x−a y−b
 ϕ (x cos α + y sin α + at)
(b) f , =0 (f) z = yf (x) + xg(y)
z−c z−c

1
 (g) z = ϕ(x).ψ(y)
2
(c) z = y + 2f + ln (y)
x (h) z = f (x2 − y) + g (x2 + y)
(d) z = f (xy) + g(x + y) (i) f (ax + by + cz, x2 + y 2 + z 2 ) = 0

3. Find the PDE of planes having equal x and y intercepts.

4. Find the PDE of all planes which are at a constant distance ‘a’ from the origin.
