Chapter Chapter 2 in A First Course in Ordinary Differential Equations, 2014, pp 11-44 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Chapter 2 deals with scalar first-order differential equations. The existence and uniqueness of solutions of initial value problems is studied on the basis of the well-known theorems of Peano and Picard-Lindelöf. The analytical standard techniques for the determination of the exact solution are given. Moreover, the solution of high-degree first-order differential equations (Clairaut and Lagrange equation) that are often encountered in the applications is discussed. The chapter ends with the discussion about family of curves and orthogonal trajectories.
