Variation of ParametersFor a second-order Ordinary Differential Equation,
 | (1) |
Assume that linearly independent solutions and are known. Find and such that
Now, impose the additional condition that
 | (4) |
so that
Plug , , and back into the original equation to obtain
 | (7) |
 | (8) |
Therefore,
Generalizing to an th degree ODE, let , ..., be the solutions to the homogeneous ODE and let ,..., be chosen such that
 | (11) |
Then the particular solution is
 | (12) |
