Question 4 Find the area of the region bounded by the two parabolas š¦=š„2 and š¦2 = š„ Drawing figure Here, we have parabolas š¦^2=š„ š„^2=š¦ Area required = Area OABC Finding Point of intersection B Solving š¦2 = š„ š„2 =š¦ Put (2) in (1) š¦2 = š„ (š„^2 )^2=š„ š„^4āš„=0 š„(š„^3ā1)=0 Finding y ā coordinate For š=š š¦=š„^2=0^2= 0 So, coordinates are (0 , 0) For š=š š¦=š„^2=1^2=1 So, coordinates are (1 , 1) Since point B lies in 1st quadrant So, co-ordinate of B is (1 , 1) Finding Area Area OABC = Area OABD ā Area OCBD Finding Area OABD Area OABD =ā«_0^1ā暦 šš„ć Here, š¦^2=š„ š¦=Ā±āš„ As OABD is in 1st quadrant, value of y is positive ā“ š¦=āš„ Area OBQP =ā«_0^1āćāš„ šš„ć =ā«_0^1āćāš„ šš„ć =ā«_0^1āćš„^(1/2) šš„ć = [š„^(1/2 + 1)/(1/2 + 1)]_0^1 = [š„^(3/2)/(3/2)]_0^1 = 2/3 [š„^(3/2) ]_0^1 =2/3 [(1)^(3/2)ā(0)^(3/2) ] =2/3 [1ā0] =2/3 Area OCBD Area OCBD =ā«_0^1ā暦 šš„ć Here, š„^2=š¦ š¦=š„^2 Area OAQP =ā«_0^1āćš„^2 šš„ć =[š„^(2 + 1)/(2 + 1)]_0^1 =1/3 [š„^3 ]_0^1 =1/3 [1^3ā0^3 ] =š/š Therefore, Area OABC = Area OABD ā Area OCBD = 2/3ā1/3 = š/š square units
