Question

Find the area of the region lying in the first quadrant bounded by the region y = 4x2, x = 0, y = 0 and y = 4

Sum

Solution

The equation of a parabola given is y = 4x2

⇒ x2 = `y/4`

⇒ x = `sqrt(y)/2`

∴ x = `sqrt(y/4)`

Also y varies from 0 to 4.

Area of the region lying in the first quadrant

A = `int_"a"^"b" x  "d"y`

= `int_0^4 sqrt(y)/2  "d"y`

= `1/2 int_0^4 (y)^(1/2)  "d"y`

= `1/2 [y^(3/2)/(3/2)]_0^4`

= `1/2 xx 2/3 (y^(3/2))_0^4`

= `1/3 {(4)^(3/2) - (0)}`

= `1/3 xx 2/3 [y^(3/2)]_0^4`

= `1/3 {(4)^(3/2) - (0)}`

= `1/3 [4sqrt(4)]`

= `1/3 [4(2)]`

A = `8/3` sq.units
