It is given that \(y={{\mathrm{e}}^{{{\sin }^{-1}}x}}\), for \(-1 < x < 1\).

  1. Show that \(\left( 1-{{x}^{2}} \right)\frac{{{\mathrm{d}}^{2}}y}{\mathrm{d}{{x}^{2}}}=x\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}+y\).[4]
  2. Find the first \(4\) terms of the Maclaurin expansion of \({{\mathrm{e}}^{{{\sin }^{-1}}x}}\).[5]

Answer:\((1-x^2)\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2} = x\dfrac{dy}{dx} + y\); \(e^{\sin^{-1}x} = 1 + x + \dfrac{1}{2}x^2 + \dfrac{1}{3}x^3 + \cdots\)
