View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
Identify the two curves
The line-based curve is This represents a rhombus with vertices:
The ellipse is which has semi-axes and .
-
Required region
We need the area inside the ellipse and outside the rhombus.
So,
-
Area of the ellipse
For ellipse area is
Here, and , so
-
Area of the rhombus
Its diagonals are:
- horizontal diagonal
- vertical diagonal
Area of rhombus:
-
Required area
-
Match with options
corresponds to Option C.
-
Verification with stored answer
Stored correct answer: C
Our derived answer is also C, so they agree.
