JEE MainMathematicsArea Under the CurvesMCQ+4 / −1
The area (in sq. units) of the region is :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
- Interpret the region
We need the area of
So the region lies in the first quadrant, inside the circle
and satisfies
- Rewrite the curves
(i) Circle
This is a circle centered at with radius .
(ii) Parabola
This is a right-opening parabola. Since , we use its upper branch.
Condition means the point is to the left of the parabola.
- Find points of intersection
Substitute
into the circle:
So,
(since ).
Corresponding values:
- for ,
- for ,
Thus the curves intersect at
- Set up area using horizontal strips
For a fixed :
- parabola gives left/right boundary condition ,
- circle gives
Since we are in the first quadrant and inside the circle, the relevant -interval inside the circle is
We also need . In the first quadrant, the required part is between
and
Hence area is
So,
- Evaluate the integral
Split it:
First term
Second term
Third term
is the area of a quarter-circle of radius , hence
Therefore,
- Match with the options
which is Option D.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: D
Our derived answer: D
So they agree.
