JEE Main 2021 (Online) 27th July Evening Shift Mathematics - Area Under The Curves Question 87 English Explanation

y −- x = 2, x2 = y

Now, x2 = 2 + x

⇒\Rightarrow x2 −- x −- 2 = 0

⇒\Rightarrow (x + 1)(x −- 2) = 0

Area = ∫−12(2+x−x2)\int\limits_{ - 1}^2 {(2 + x - {x^2})}

=∣2x+x22−x33∣−12= \left| {2x + {{{x^2}} \over 2} - {{{x^3}} \over 3}} \right|_{ - 1}^2

=(4+2−83)−(−2+12+13)= \left( {4 + 2 - {8 \over 3}} \right) - \left( { - 2 + {1 \over 2} + {1 \over 3}} \right)

=6−3+2−12=92= 6 - 3 + 2 - {1 \over 2} = {9 \over 2}
