Mathematics Question on Area between Two Curves
The area of the smaller region enclosed by the curves y 2 = 8 x + 4 and
x2+y2+4√3x-4=0
is equal to
A
31(2−12√3+8π)
B
31(2−12√3+6π)
C
31(4−12√3+8π)
D
31(4−12√3+6π)
Answer
31(4−12√3+8π)
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (C):
cosθ=42√3
= √3/4
⇒ θ = 30°
Area of the required region
=32(4×21)+42×6π−21×4×2√3
= 34+38π−4√3
= 314−12√3+8π
