Solution

We have,x=acos2t+2t sin2t and y=asin2t-2t cos2tOn differentiating with respect to t, we getdxdt=ddtacos2t+2t sin2t=a-2sin2t+2sin2t+4t cos2t =a4t cos2tanddydt=ddtasin2t-2t cos2t=a2cos2t-2cos2t+4t sin2t =a4t sin2tNow, dydx=dydtdxdt=a4t sin2ta4t cos2t=tan2tTherefore,d2ydx2=ddxdydx=ddxtan2t =ddttan2t×dtdx=2sec22t×1a4t cos2t =12at cos32t=12atsec32tHence, d2ydx2=12atsec32t.
