(a) Determine the area of the region P, Q and R using at least three different
methods including the use of calculus. Verify the answer obtained by using
computer software.
Method 1:
i)
Area P
Divide the area into three segments. 1 triangle, 1 trapezium and 1
rectangle.
Triangle
=(4)(3)
=6
Trapezium
= (4+2)(1)
=3
Rectangle
=3(2)
=6
Hence,
