Find the area bounded by the parabola y=4- x2 and the straight line y=2.

A. 7√2/3 B. 8√2/3 C. 0 D. 4

Given: y=4-x2

y=2

Required: Area

Solution:

y = 4 – x2

y=2

2 = 4 – x2

x = ±√ 2 ; x = √ 2 , x = - √ 2

if x = 2 if x = -
√

√2

y = 4 – (√ 2)2 y = 4 – (√ 2)2

y=2 y=2

(-√ 2,2) (√ 2,2)

Therefore, the area is:

√2
A= ∫ ( y 2− y 1 )dx
−√ 2

√2
A= ∫ (( 4−x 2) −2)dx
−√ 2
