(4) Consider the IVP y' = 1+ y² y(0) = 0. (a) Verify that y(x) = tan(x) is the solution to this IVP. (b) Both f(x, y) 1+ y² and fy(x, y) = 2y are continuous on the whole xy-plane. Yet the solution y(x) = tan(x) is not defined for all -∞ < x < ∞. Why does this not contradict the theorem on existence and uniqueness (Theorem 2.3.1 of Trench)? (c) Find the largest interval for which the solution to the IVP exists and is unique. =
