EQUATIONS
The expression
M ( x, y ) dx N ( x, y ) dy ……(1)
is called exact (or Total) differential if there exist a
function f ( x , y ) of two real variables such that the
expression equals the differential df. We know that
f f
df dx dy ……………….(2)
x y f
Thus if equation (1) is exact then M ( x, y) fx

f
N ( x, y) f y …….(3) If (1) is an exact differential
y
then DE
M ( x , y ) dx N ( x , y ) dy 0
is called an exact differential equation.
