Exercise 8.2

1. Find the area of the circle 4x2 + 4y2 = 9 which is interior to the parabola x2 = 4y.

Sol. Given, circle is 4x2 + 4y2 = 9 and the given parabola is x2 = 4y. The two curves meet where

4(4y) + 4y2 = 9

$$\Rarr\space 4y^{2} + 16y-9=0\\\Rarr\space y=\frac{-16\pm\sqrt{256 + 144}}{2×4}\\=\frac{-16\pm\sqrt{400}}{8}=\frac{-16\pm 20}{8}\\=\frac{1}{2},-\frac{9}{2}\\\text{But y}\gt0,\space\text{therefore, the two curves}\\\text{meet when y =}\frac{1}{2}.$$

∴ Required area (shown in shaded region)

$$= 2\int^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}(y_2-y_1)dx\\= 2\begin{Bmatrix}\int^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}\sqrt{\frac{9-4x^{2}}{4}}dx - \int^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}\frac{x^{2}}{4}dx\end{Bmatrix}\\= 2\int^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}\sqrt{\bigg(\frac{3}{2}\bigg)^{2}-x^{2}}dx - \frac{2}{4}\bigg[\frac{x^{3}}{3}\bigg]^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}\\= 2\bigg[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{\bigg(\frac{3}{2}\bigg)^{2}-x^{2}} + \frac{(\frac{3}{2})^{2}}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{x}{3/2}\bigg)\bigg]^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}\\-\frac{1}{6}\lbrack(\sqrt{2})^{3}-0\rbrack$$

$$=\bigg[x\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-x^{2}} + \frac{9}{4}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{2x}{3}\bigg)\bigg]^{\sqrt{2}}_{0}-\\\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{6}\\=\bigg[\sqrt{2}\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-2}+\frac{9}{4}\text{sin}^{-1}\bigg(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\bigg)\bigg]-\\\lbrack0-0\rbrack-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{6}\\=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}+\frac{9}{4}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\bigg)-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{6}\\=\bigg(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}\bigg)+\frac{9}{4}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\bigg)\\=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{6}+\frac{9}{4}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\bigg)\text{sq unit}$$

2. Find the area bounded by the curves (x – 1)2 + y2 = 1 and x2 + y2 = 1.

Sol. Given, curve (x – 1)2 + y2 = 1 ...(i)

$$\therefore\space y=\sqrt{ 1- (x-1)^{2}}$$

which represents a circle with centre (1, 0) and radius 1

and curve x2 + y2 = 1 ...(ii)

$$\therefore\space y=\sqrt{1-x^{2}}$$

which represents a circle with centre (0, 0) and radius 1.

Both the curves are circle and meet where (x – 1)2 = x2 i.e., where 2x = 1 or  $$x = \frac{1}{2}.$$

Required area (shown in shaded region).

$$= 2\bigg[\int^{\frac{1}{2}}_{0}y_1 dx + \int^{1}_{\frac{1}{2}}y_2 dx\bigg]\\=2\begin{Bmatrix}\int^{\frac{1}{2}}_{0}\sqrt{1 - (x-1)^{2}}dx + \\\int^{1}_{\frac{1}{2}}\sqrt{1-x^{2}}dx\end{Bmatrix}\\=2 \begin{bmatrix}\frac{x-1}{2}\sqrt{1 -(x-1)^{2}} + \frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\frac{x-1}{1}\end{bmatrix}^{\frac{1}{2}}_{0}+\\2\bigg[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{1-x^{2}}+\frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}x\bigg]^{1}_{\frac{1}{2}}$$

$$=2\begin{bmatrix}\frac{\frac{1}{2}-1}{2}\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{4}} + \frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\bigg(-\frac{1}{2}\bigg)-\\\bigg(\frac{-1}{2}\bigg)0-\frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}(\normalsize-1)\end{bmatrix}+\\2\begin{bmatrix}0+\frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}(1) - \\\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{4}}-\frac{1}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\frac{1}{2}\end{bmatrix}$$

$$= 2\bigg[-\frac{1}{4}.\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\frac{1}{2}.\frac{\pi}{6} + 0 + \frac{1}{2}.\frac{\pi}{2}\bigg]+\\\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{1}{2}.\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\frac{\pi}{6}\\=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}-\frac{\pi}{6} + \frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}-\frac{\pi}{6}\\=\bigg(\frac{2\pi}{3} - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\bigg)\text{sq unit}$$

3. Find the area of the region bounded by the curves y = x2 + 2, y = x, x = 0 and x = 3.

Sol. Given curve y = x2 + 2 represents a parabola and it is symmetrical about Y-axis having vertex (0, 2).

Applications of Integrals_ex8.2_3

The given region bounded by y = x2 + 2, y = x, x = 0 and x = 3, is represented by the shaded area.

The point of intersection of the curve y = x2 + 2 and the line x = 3 is (3, 11).

Required area (shown is shaded region)

= Area OABDO – Area OCDO

= [Area under y = x2 + 2 between x = 0, x = 3] – [Area under y = x between x = 0, x = 3]

$$=\int^{3}_{0}(x^{2}+2)dx - \int^{3}_{0} xdx\\=\bigg[\frac{x^{3}}{3}+2x\bigg]^{3}_{0}-\bigg[\frac{x^{2}}{2}\bigg]^{3}_{0}\\=\bigg[\frac{3^{3}}{3}+6-0\bigg]-\bigg[\frac{3^{2}}{2}-0\bigg]\\=9+6-\frac{9}{2}=\frac{21}{2}\text{sq unit}$$

Equation of the line joining points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is

$$(y-y_1)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\\text{Equation of line AB is y – 0 }\\=\frac{3-0}{1+1}(x+1)\\\Rarr\space y=\frac{3}{2}(x+1)\\\text{Equation of line BC is y – 3 =}\\\frac{2-3}{3-1}(x-1)\\\Rarr\space y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}+3\\\Rarr\space y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{7}{2}\\\text{Equation of line AC is}\\\text{y-0}=\frac{2-0}{3+1}(x+1)$$

$$\Rarr\space y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}$$

Applications of Integrals_ex8.2_4

Area of triangle ABC

= Area AMB + Area BMNC – Area ANC

$$=\int^{1}_{-1}\frac{3}{2}(x+1)dx + \int^{3}_{1}\bigg(-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{7}{2}\bigg)dx-\\\int^{3}_{\normalsize-1}\bigg(\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}\bigg)dx\\=\frac{3}{2}\bigg[\frac{x^{2}}{2}+x\bigg]^{1}_{\normalsize-1} + \bigg[-\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{7}{2}x\bigg]^{3}_{1}-\\\bigg[\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{1}{2}x\bigg]^{3}_{\normalsize-1}\\=\frac{3}{2}\bigg[\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}-(-1)\bigg] + \\\bigg[-\frac{9}{4}+\frac{21}{2}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{7}{2}\bigg]-\\\bigg[\frac{9}{4}+\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2}\bigg]$$

$$=\frac{3}{2}\lbrack2\rbrack + \lbrack7-2\rbrack + \lbrack-2+2\rbrack$$

Sol. Given equation of sides of the triangle are y = 2x + 1, y = 3x + 1 and x = 4.

On solving these equations, we obtain the vertices of triangle as A(0, 1), B(4, 13) and C(4, 9).

Applications of Integrals_ex8.2_5

∴ Required area (shown is shaded region)

= Area (OLBAO) – Area (OLCAO)

$$=\int^{4}_{0}(3x+1)dx-\int^{4}_{0}(2x+1)dx\\=\bigg[\frac{3x^2}{2}+x\bigg]^{4}_{0}-\lbrack x^{2}+x\rbrack^{4}_{0}\\=\bigg[\frac{3×4^{2}}{2}+4-0\bigg]-\lbrack 4^{2}+4-0\rbrack\\=24+4-20$$

The smaller area enclosed by the circle, x2 + y2 = 4 and the line x + y = 2 is represented by the shaded area ACBA.

The intersection points of circle and line are A(2, 0) and B(0, 2).

Applications of Integrals_ex8.2_6

∴ Required area (shown in shaded region)

= Area OACBO – Area (ΔOAB)

$$=\int^{2}_{0}\sqrt{4-x^{2}}dx - \int^{2}_{0}(2-x)dx\\\lbrack\because x^{2}+y^{2}=4\\\Rarr\space y=\sqrt{4-x^{2}\space}\text{and x+y=2}\\\Rarr\space y=2-x\rbrack$$

$$=\bigg[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{4-x^{2}} + \frac{4}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\frac{x}{2}\bigg]^{2}_{0}-\\\bigg[2x-\frac{x^{2}}{2}\bigg]^{2}_{0}$$

$$=\bigg[\frac{2}{2}\sqrt{4-4} + \frac{4}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}(1) - 0- \frac{4}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}(0)\bigg]-\\\lbrack4-2\rbrack$$

$$\begin{bmatrix}\because\space \int\sqrt{a^{2}-x^{2}}dx =\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{a^{2}-x^{2}} +\\\frac{a^{2}}{2}\text{sin}^{\normalsize-1}\frac{x}{a}\end{bmatrix}\\=\begin{bmatrix}2.\frac{\pi}{2}\end{bmatrix}-[4-2]=(\pi-2)\text{sq.unit.}$$

7. Area lying between the curves y2 = 4x and y = 2x is :

$$\textbf{(a)\space}\frac{\textbf{2}}{\textbf{3}}\\\textbf{(b)\space}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{3}}\\\textbf{(c)\space}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{4}}\\\textbf{(d)\space}\frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{4}}\\\textbf{Sol.}\space\text{(b)}\frac{1}{3}$$

The given curve is y2 = 4x ...(i)

and the given line is y = 2x ...(ii)

The two curve meet where (2x)2 = 4x

$$\Rarr\space 4x(x-1)=0\\\Rarr\space x=0,1$$

When x = 0, y = 2 × 0 = 0

and when x = 1, y = 2 × 1 = 2

∴ Equations (i) and (ii) meet at the points (0, 0) and (1, 2).

Applications of Integrals_ex8.2_7

$$\text{Required area =}\int^{1}_{0}(2\sqrt{x} -2x)dx\\(\because\space y^{2}=4x\Rarr\space |y|=2\sqrt{x})\\=\bigg[2\frac{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}-x^{2}\bigg]^{1}_{0}\\=\frac{4}{3}.1^{\frac{3}{2}}-1^{2}=0\\=\frac{1}{3}\text{sq unit}$$
