Marks: +1, -0
Using integration find the area of the region bounded by the parabola y2 = 4x and the circle 4x2+4y2 = 9.
Solution:
The respective equations for the parabola and the circle are:
y2 = 4x ... (1)
4x2+4y2 = 9 ... (2)
or x2+y2 = (32)2
Equation (1) is a parabola with vertex (0, 0) which opens to the right and equation (2) is a circle with centre (0, 0) and radius 32
From equations (1) and (2), we get:
4x2 + 4 (4x) = 9
4x2 + 16x - 9 = 0
4x2 + 18x - 2x - 9 = 0
2x (2x + 9) - 1 (2x + 9) = 0
(2x + 9) (2x - 1) = 0
x = - 92,12
For x = −92 , y2 = 4 (−92) , which is not possible, hence x = 12
Therefore, the given curves intersect at x = 12

Required area of the region bound by the two curves
= 2 ∫0122xdx + 2∫123294−x2dx
= 4 |23x32|012 + 2
|x294−x2+98sin−1(2x3)sin−1(2x3)|1232

= 83(18)12 + 2
|0+98sin−1−142−98sin−1(13)|

= 83(122) + 94(π2) - 22−94sin−1(13)
= 223+9π8 - 22−94sin−1(13)
