JEE Main 2022 (Online) 30th June Morning Shift Mathematics - Area Under The Curves Question 69 English Explanation 1

Point A is the intersection of y = x + α\alpha and y = 2 −- x lines.

∴\therefore y=2−y+αy = 2 - y + \alpha

⇒2y=2+α\Rightarrow 2y = 2 + \alpha

⇒y=2+α2\Rightarrow y = {{2 + \alpha } \over 2}

and x=2−2+α2=2−α2x = 2 - {{2 + \alpha } \over 2} = {{2 - \alpha } \over 2}

∴\therefore Point A=(2−α2,2+α2)A = \left( {{{2 - \alpha } \over 2},{{2 + \alpha } \over 2}} \right)

∴\therefore AN = y-coordinate of point A=2+α2A = {{2 + \alpha } \over 2}

Point B is the intersection of y=2+xy = 2 + x and y=−x−αy = - x - \alpha lines.

∴\therefore y=2−y−αy = 2 - y - \alpha

⇒2y=2−α\Rightarrow 2y = 2 - \alpha

⇒y=2−α2\Rightarrow y = {{2 - \alpha } \over 2}

∴\therefore x=2−α2−2=2−α−42=−α−22x = {{2 - \alpha } \over 2} - 2 = {{2 - \alpha - 4} \over 2} = {{ - \alpha - 2} \over 2}

∴\therefore Point B=(−α−22,2−α2)B = \left( {{{ - \alpha - 2} \over 2},{{2 - \alpha } \over 2}} \right)

∴\therefore BM=y−BM = y - coordinate of point B=2−α2B = {{2 - \alpha } \over 2}

Area of the common region BRAEBRAE

=ΔCDE−(ΔBCR+ΔARD)= \Delta CDE - \left( {\Delta BCR + \Delta ARD} \right)

=12×4×2−(12(−α+2)×BM+12×(2+α)×AN)= {1 \over 2} \times 4 \times 2 - \left( {{1 \over 2}( - \alpha + 2) \times BM + {1 \over 2} \times (2 + \alpha ) \times AN} \right)

=4−(12×(2−α)×(2−α)2+12×(2+α)×2+α2)= 4 - \left( {{1 \over 2} \times (2 - \alpha ) \times {{(2 - \alpha )} \over 2} + {1 \over 2} \times (2 + \alpha ) \times {{2 + \alpha } \over 2}} \right)

=4−[(2−α)24+(2+α)24]= 4 - \left[ {{{{{(2 - \alpha )}^2}} \over 4} + {{{{(2 + \alpha )}^2}} \over 4}} \right]

Given, 4−[(2−α)24+(2+α)24]=324 - \left[ {{{{{(2 - \alpha )}^2}} \over 4} + {{{{(2 + \alpha )}^2}} \over 4}} \right] = {3 \over 2}

⇒(2−α)24+(2+α)24=52\Rightarrow {{{{(2 - \alpha )}^2}} \over 4} + {{{{(2 + \alpha )}^2}} \over 4} = {5 \over 2}

⇒(2−α)2+(2+α)2=10\Rightarrow {(2 - \alpha )^2} + {(2 + \alpha )^2} = 10

⇒4+α2−4α+4+α2+4α=10\Rightarrow 4 + {\alpha ^2} - 4\alpha + 4 + {\alpha ^2} + 4\alpha = 10

⇒2α2+8=10\Rightarrow 2{\alpha ^2} + 8 = 10

⇒2α2=2\Rightarrow 2{\alpha ^2} = 2

⇒α2=1\Rightarrow {\alpha ^2} = 1

⇒α= ± 1\Rightarrow \alpha = \, \pm \,1

Given that \alpha > 0 so accepted value of α=+ 1\alpha = + \,1 .

Now, 0≤y≤x+2α0 \le y \le x + 2\alpha and ∣x∣≤1|x| \le 1

⇒0≤y≤x+2\Rightarrow 0 \le y \le x + 2 and −1≤x≤1- 1 \le x \le 1
