Marks: +1, -0
Using integration find the area of the triangular region whose sides have equations
y = 2x + 1, y = 3x + 1 and x = 4.
Solution:
Hence, of all the rectangles inscribed in the given circle, the square has the maximum area.
Equations of the lines are y = 2x + 1, y = 3x + 1 and x + 4
Let y1 = 2x + 1, y2 = 3x + 1
Now area of the triangle bounded by the given lines,
= 04(y2−y1) dx
= 04[(3x+1)−(2x+1)] dx
= 04x dx
= 12[x2]04
= 12(42−02)
= 12 × 16
= 8 sq. units
Thus, the area of the required triangular region is 8 square units.
