Mathematics Question on applications of integrals
Find the area bounded by curves(x-1)2+y2=1 and x2+y2=1
The area bounded by the curves,(x-1)2+y2=1 and x2+y2=1,is represented by the shaded area as
On solving the equations,(x-1)2+y2=1 and x2+y2=1,we obtain the point of
intersection asA(21,23)and B(21,−23)
It can be observed that the required area is symmetrical about x-axis.
∴Area OBCAO=2×Area OCAO
We join AB,which intersect OC at M,such that AM is perpendicular to OC.
The coordinates of M are(21,0).
⇒AreaOCAO=AreaOMAO+AreaMCAM
=[∫0211−(x−1)2dx+∫2111−x2dx]
=[2x−11−(x−1)2+21sin−1(x−1)]021+[2x1−x2+21sin−1x]211
=[−411−(−21)2+21sin−1(21−1)−21sin−1(−1)]+[21sin−1(1)−411−(21)2−21sin−1(21)]
=[−83+21(−6π)−21(−2π)]+[21(2π)−83−21(6π)]
=[−43−12π+4π+4π−12π]
=[−43−6π+2π]
=[62π−43]
Therefore,required area OBCAO=2×[62π−43]==[32π−23] units.
