Method of Undetermined Coefficients for Differential Equations

In this video, we explore the method of undetermined coefficients to solve non-homogeneous differential equations. This method involves finding a complementary solution (by solving the homogeneous differential equation) and summing that solution with a single particular solution.

We walk through a handful of examples and cover strategies of how to "guess" a particular solution.

It is highly recommended to be familiar with solving constant coefficient differential equations before watching this video, so check out our video on that if you have not done so already!
