\left ( 0,2 \right )and \left ( 3,0 \right )

\\\frac{x^{2}}{9}+\frac{y^{2}}{4}=1\\ y=\frac{2}{3}\sqrt{9-x^{2}}

Since the shaded region lies above x axis we take y to be positive

\\\frac{x}{3}+\frac{y}{2}=1\\ y=\frac{2}{3}(3-x)

The required area is

\\\frac{2}{3}\int_{0}^{3}\left ( \sqrt{9-x^{2}}-(3-x) \right )dx\\ =\frac{2}{3}[\frac{x}{2}(\sqrt{9-x^{2}})+\frac{9}{2}sin^{-1}\frac{x}{3}-3x+\frac{x^{2}}{2}]_{0}^{3}\\ =\frac{2}{3}\left ( \left [ \frac{9}{2}\times \frac{\pi }{2}-9+\frac{9}{2} \right ]-0 \right )\\ =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{9\pi }{4}-\frac{9}{2})\\ =\frac{3}{2}(\pi -2)units

Y will always be positive since the shaded region lies above x axis

\\\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1\\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{b}{a}(a-x)

The required area is

\\\frac{b}{a}\int_{0}^{a}(\sqrt{a^{2}-x^{2}}-(a-x))dx\\ =\frac{b}{a}[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{a^{2}-x^{2}}+\frac{a^{2}}{2}sin^{-1}\frac{x}{a}-ax+\frac{x^{2}}{2}]_{0}^{a}\\ =\frac{b}{a}[(\frac{a^{2}}{2}\times \frac{\pi }{2}-a^{2}+\frac{a^{2}}{2})]\\ =\frac{b}{a}(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}-\frac{a^{2}}{2})\\ =\frac{ab}{4}(\pi -2)units

Question:13 Using the method of integration find the area of the triangle ABC, coordinates of whose vertices are \small A(2,0),B(4,5)\hspace{1mm}and\hspace{1mm}C(6,3).

Answer:

1654764957923

Equation of line joining A and B is

\\\frac{y-0}{x-2}=\frac{5-0}{4-2}\\ y=\frac{5x}{2}-5

Equation of line joining B and C is

\\\frac{y-5}{x-4}=\frac{5-3}{4-6}\\ y=9-x

Equation of line joining A and C is

\\\frac{y-0}{x-2}=\frac{3-0}{6-2}\\ y=\frac{3x}{4}-\frac{3}{2}

ar(ABC)=ar(ABL)+ar(LBCM)-ar(ACM)

\\ar(ABL)=\int_{2}^{4}(\frac{5x}{2}-5)dx\\ =[\frac{5x^{2}}{4}-5x]_{2}^{4}\\ =(20-20)-(5-10)\\ =5\ units

\\ar(LBCM)=\int_{4}^{6}(9-x)dx\\ =[9x-\frac{x^{2}}{2}]_{4}^{6}\\ =(54-18)-(36-8)\\ =8\ units

\\ar(ACM)=\int_{2}^{6}(\frac{3x}{4}-\frac{3}{2})dx\\ =[\frac{3x^{2}}{8}-\frac{3x}{2}]_{2}^{6}\\ =(\frac{27}{2}-9)-(\frac{3}{2}-3)\\ =6\ units

ar(ABC)=8+5-6=7

Therefore the area of the triangle ABC is 7 units.

The lines intersect at points (1,2), (4,3) and (2,0)

\\x-3y=-5\\ y=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{5}{3}

\\ar(ACLM)=\int_{1}^{4}(\frac{x}{3}+\frac{5}{3})dx\\ =[\frac{x^{2}}{6}+\frac{5x}{3}]_{1}^{4}\\ =(\frac{4^{2}}{6}+\frac{5\times 4}{3})-(\frac{1}{6}+\frac{5}{3})\\ =\frac{15}{2}\ units

\\2x+y=4\\ y=4-2x

\\ar(ALB)=\int_{1}^{2}(4-2x)dx\\ =[4x-x^{2}]_{1}^{2}\\ =(8-4)-(4-1)\\ =1\ unit

\\3x-2y=6\\ y=\frac{3x}{2}-3

\\ar(BMC)=\int_{2}^{4}(\frac{3x}{2}-3)dx\\ =[\frac{3x^{2}}{4}-3x]_{2}^{4}\\ =(12-12)-(3-6)\\ =3\ units

We have to find the area of the shaded region OCBAO

Ar(OCBAO)=2ar(OCBO)

For the fist quadrant

\\4x^{2}+4y^{2}=9\\ y=\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-x^{2}}

\\y^{2}=4x\\ y=2\sqrt{x}

In the first quadrant, the curves intersect at a point \left ( \frac{1}{2},\sqrt{2} \right )

Area of the unshaded region in the first quadrant is

\\\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}}\left ( \sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-x^{2}} -2\sqrt{x}\right )dx\\ =[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-x^{2}}+\frac{9}{8}sin^{-1}\frac{2x}{3}]{_{0}}^{\frac{1}{2}}-4[\frac{x^{3/2}}{3}]_0^{1/2}\\ =\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}+\frac{9}{8}sin^{-1}\frac{1}{3}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}

The total area of the shaded region is-
= Area of half circle - area of the shaded region in the first quadrant

\\\frac{\pi }{2}\times (\frac{3}{2})^{2}-2\left ( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}+\frac{9}{8}sin^{-1}\frac{1}{3}\right )\\ =\frac{9 }{8}\left ( \pi-2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{3} \right )+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{6}\ units

Answer:

1654765195847

The area of the shaded region is to be found.

Required area =ar(DOC)+ar(DOA)

The region to the left of the y-axis is half of the circle with radius 4 units and centre origin.

Area of the shaded region to the left of y axis is ar(1) = \frac{\pi 4^{2}}{2}=8\pi\ units

For the region to the right of y-axis and above x axis

\\x^{2}+y^{2}=16\\ y=\sqrt{16-x^{2}}

\\y^{2}=6x\\ y=\sqrt{6x}

The parabola and the circle in the first quadrant intersect at point

\left ( 2,2\sqrt{3} \right )

Remaining area is 2ar(2) is

\\ar(2)=\int_{0}^{2}\left ( \sqrt{16-x^{2}}-\sqrt{6x} \right )dx\\ =[ \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{16-x^{2}}+\frac{16}{2}sin^{-1}(\frac{x}{4})-\frac{2\sqrt{6}}{3}x^{\frac{3}{2}} ]{_{0}}^{2}\\ =[\sqrt{12}+\frac{16}{2}\times \frac{\pi }{6}-\frac{4\sqrt{12}}{3}]\\ =\frac{4\pi }{3}-\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}

Total area of shaded region is

\\ar(1)+2ar(2)\\ =8\pi +\frac{8\pi}{3}-\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{3}\\ =\frac{4}{3}(8\pi -\sqrt{3})\ units

1654765304392


Area of shaded region = area of BCDB + are of ADCA

=\int_{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}^{1}x dy +\int_{1}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}x dy

=\int_{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}^{1} cos^{-1} y .dy +\int_{1}^{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}} sin^{-1}x dy

=[y. cos^{-1}y - \sqrt{1-y^2}]_\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}^1 + [x. sin^{-1}x + \sqrt{1-x^2}]_1^\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

= cos^{-1}(1)-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})+\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})+\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{2}}-1

=\frac{-\pi }{4\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{\pi }{4\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}-1

=\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}} - 1

=\sqrt{2} - 1

Hence, the correct answer is B.
