Work Step by Step

Given: $y''-a^2y=f(t)$ Since $y(0)=\alpha\\ y'(0)=\beta$ obtain: $L[y]=\frac{F(s)}{s^2-a^2}+\frac{s\alpha}{s^2-a^2}+\frac{\beta}{s^2-a^2}$ Using the Convolution Theorem $y(t)=L^{-1}[\frac{F(s)}{s^2-a^2}]+L^{-1}[\frac{s\alpha}{s^2-a^2}]+L^{-1}[\frac{\beta}{s^2-a^2}]\\ =\frac{1}{A}\beta\sin(at)+\alpha \cos (at)+\int^t_0 \sin(a\tau)f(t-\tau)d \tau$
