Mathematics Question on Area between Two Curves
The area bounded by the curves y = |x2 – 1| and y = 1 is
A
32(2+1)
B
34(2−1)
C
2(2−1)
D
38(2−1)
Answer
38(2−1)
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (D) : 38(2−1)
Fig.
Area =2∫02(1−∣x2−1∣)dx
=2[∫01(1−(1−x2))dx+∫12(2−x2)dx]
2[[3x3]01+[2x−3x3]12]
=2(342−4)
=38(2−1)
