Statement 1: The degrees of the differential equations dydx+y2=x\frac{d y}{d x}+y^2=xdxdy​+y2=x and d2ydx2+y=sin⁡x\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+y=\sin xdx2d2y​+y=sinx are equal. Statement 2: The degree of a differential equation, when it is a polynomial equation in derivatives, is the highest positive integral power of the highest order derivative involved in the differential equation, otherwise degree is not defined.
