Question 8 Find the area bounded by the curve š„2=4š¦ and the line š„=4š¦ ā 2 Here, š„2=4š¦ is a parabola And, x = 4y ā 2 is a line which intersects the parabola at points A and B We need to find Area of shaded region First we find Points A and B Finding points A and B Points A & B are the intersection of curve and line We know that, š„=4š¦ā2 Putting in equation of curve , we get š„^2=4š¦ (4š¦ā2)^2=4š¦ 16š¦^2+4ā16š¦=4š¦ 16š¦^2ā16š¦ā4š¦+4=0 16š¦^2ā20š¦+4=0 4[4š¦^2ā5š¦+1]=0 4š¦^2ā5š¦+1=0 4š¦^2ā4š¦āš¦+1=0 4š¦(š¦ā1)ā1(š¦ā1)=0 (4š¦ā1)(š¦ā1)=0 So, y = 1/4 , y = 1 For š=š/š š„=4š¦ā2 š„=4(1/4)ā2 š„ =ā1 So, point is (ā1, 1/4) For y = 1 š„=4š¦ā2 š„=4(1)ā2 š„ =2 So, point is (2, 1) As Point A is in 2nd Quadrant ā“ A = (ā1 , 1/4) & Point B is in 1st Quadrant ā“ B = (2 , 1) Finding required area Required Area = Area APBQ ā Area APOQBA Area APBQ Area APBQ = ā«_(ā1)^2āš¦šš„ Here, š¦ ā Equation of Line š„=4š¦ā2 š„+2=4š¦ š¦=(š„ + 2)/4 Area APBQ = ā«_(ā1)^2ā(š„ + 2)/4 šš„ = 1/4 ā«1_(ā1)^2ā(š„+2)šš„ = 1/4 [š„^2/2+2š„]_(ā1)^2 = 1/4 [(2^2/2+2(2))ā(ć(ā1)ć^2/2+2(ā1))] = 1/4 [(2+4)ā(1/2ā2))] = 1/4 [6ā1/2+2] = 1/4Ć15/2 = 15/8 Area APOQBA Area APOQBA = ā«_(ā1)^2ā暦 šš„ć Here, š¦ ā Equation of Parabola š„^2=4š¦ 4š¦=š„^2 š¦=1/4 š„^2 Area APOQBA = 1/4 ā«1_(ā1)^2āćš„^2 šš„ć = 1/4 [š„^3/3]_(ā1)^2 = 1/4 [((2)^3 ā (ā1)^3)/3] = 1/4 [(8 ā (ā1))/3] = 1/4 [(8 + 1)/3] = 3/4 Now, Required Area = Area APBQ ā Area APOQBA = 15/8 ā 3/4 " = " (15 ā 6)/8 = 9/8 ā“ Required Area = š/š Square units
