Question
**Question: Solve the equation**

\[ 2yy'' = 1 + (y')^2 \]

**Explanation:**
This equation is a second-order differential equation. Here, \( y \) denotes the function of \( x \), \( y' \) is the first derivative of \( y \) with respect to \( x \), and \( y'' \) is the second derivative of \( y \) with respect to \( x \). The task is to find a function \( y(x) \) that satisfies the equation.
