Question 26 (OR 1st question) Find the area bounded by the curves y = βπ₯, 2y + 3 = x and x axis
Given equation of curves
y = βπ₯
2y + 3 = x
Here,
y = βπ₯
y2 = x
So, it is a parabola, with only positive values of y
Drawing figure
Drawing line 2y + 3 = x on the graph
Finding point of intersection of line and curve
y = βπ₯
Putting x = 2y + 3 from equation of line
y = β(2π¦+3)
Squaring both sides
y2 = (β(2π¦+3))^2
y2 = 2y + 3
y2 β 2y β 3 = 0
y2 β 3y + y β 3 = 0
y(y β 3) + 1(y β 3) = 0
(y β 3) (y + 1) = 0
So, y = 3, y = β1
Since y cannot be negative
y = 3
Since y cannot be negative
y = 3
Now, putting y = 3 in lineβs equation
2y + 3 = x
2(3) + 3 = x
6 + 3 = x
9 = x
x = 9
So, point is (9, 3)
Now, letβs find the area
Area required
Area required = Area OAC β Area ABC
Area OAC
Area OAC = β«1_0^9βγπ¦ ππ₯γ
y β Equation of curve
y = βπ₯
Therefore,
Area OAC = β«1_0^9βγβπ₯ ππ₯γ
= β«1_0^9βγπ₯^(1/2) ππ₯γ
= [π₯^(3/2)/(3/2)]_0^9
= 2/3 [9^(3/2)β0^(3/2) ]
= 2/3 Γ 9^(3/2)
= 2/3 Γ 3^((2 Γ 3/2) )
= 2/3 Γ 3^3
= 2 Γ 32 = 18
Area ABC
Area ABC = β«1_3^9βγπ¦ ππ₯γ
y β Equation of line
2y + 3 = x
2y = x β 3
y = π₯/2 β 3/2
Area ABC = β«1_3^9βγ(π₯/2β3/2) ππ₯γ
= β«1_3^9βγπ₯/2 ππ₯γ β β«1_3^9βγ3/2 ππ₯γ
= [π₯^2/(2 Γ 2)]_3^9 β 3/2 [π₯]_3^9
= [π₯^2/4]_3^9 β 3/2 [π₯]_3^9
= [9^2/4β3^2/4] β 3/2 [9β3]
= [(81 β 9)/4] β 3/2 [6]
= 18 β 9
= 9
Therefore,
Area required = Area OAC β Area ABC
= 18 β 9
= 9 square units
