1. Find the general solution of the differential equation: \(2\sqrt{x}\,y'=\sqrt{1-y^2}\)
- \(y=\sin(\sqrt{x}+C),\quad\) equilibrium solutions at \(y=\pm1\)
2. Find the solution to the initial value problem and the interval of validity: \(2\sqrt{x}\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\cos^2 y,\qquad\) \(y(4)=\dfrac{\pi}{4}\)
\(y=\arctan(\sqrt{x}-1), \quad\)\(I.V.=(0,\infty)\)
