For the PDE $F(x,y,z,p,q)=p^{2}x+q^{2}y-z=0$ with $p=z_{x},\;q=z_{y}$, Charpit’s characteristic system is $$ \frac{dx}{F_{p}}=\frac{dy}{F_{q}}=\frac{dz}{pF_{p}+qF_{q}}=\frac{dp}{-F_{x}-pF_{z}}=\frac{dq}{-F_{y}-qF_{z}}. $$ Compute the partials: $$ F_{p}=2px,\qquad F_{q}=2qy,\qquad F_{x}=p^{2},\qquad F_{y}=q^{2},\qquad F_{z}=-1. $$ Hence the characteristic equations become $$ \frac{dx}{2px}=\frac{dy}{2qy}=\frac{dz}{2\big(p^{2}x+q^{2}y\big)}=\frac{dp}{p-p^{2}}=\frac{dq}{q-q^{2}}. $$ Since $p^{2}x+q^{2}y=z$, the third ratio simplifies to $\dfrac{dz}{2z}$. We therefore work with $$ \frac{dx}{2px}=\frac{dz}{2z}=\frac{dp}{p-p^{2}},\qquad \frac{dy}{2qy}=\frac{dz}{2z}=\frac{dq}{q-q^{2}}. $$ Integrate the relations involving $p$ and $z$: $$ _____ __________ _________ ______ _______.
