If  (d^2 y/dx^2 ) + 4y = 0   y(0) = 1 and y((π/6)) = ((√3)/2) + (1/2)  How to find y(x) ?

$$\mathrm{If}\:\:\frac{{d}^{\mathrm{2}} {y}}{{dx}^{\mathrm{2}} }\:+\:\mathrm{4}{y}\:=\:\mathrm{0}\: \\ $$$${y}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{and}\:{y}\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}\right)\:=\:\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{How}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{find}\:{y}\left({x}\right)\:? \\ $$

y′′(x)+4y=0  r^2 +4=0⇔r_1 =2i ,  r=−2i  y(x)=Ae^(2ix) +Be^(−2ix)   y(0)=A+B=1⇔B=1−A  y((π/6))=Ae^((π/3)i) +(1−A)e^(−(π/3)i) =A(e^((π/3)i) −e^(−(π/3)i) )+(1/2)−i((√3)/2)  =2iAsin((π/3))+(1/2)−i((√3)/2)=((√3)/2)+(1/2)  2iA((√3)/2)+(1/2)−i((√3)/2)−((√3)/2)−(1/2)=0  2iA=i+1⇔A=(1/2)−i(1/2)=((√2)/2)e^(−i(π/4))   B=(1/2)+i(1/2)=((√2)/2)e^(i(π/4))   y(x)=((√2)/2)(e^(i(2x−(π/4))) +e^(−i(2x−(π/4))) )=((√2)/2)×2cos(2x−(π/4))  y(x)=(√2)cos(2x−(π/4))
