JEE Main 2022 · 24 Jun · Shift 2, Mathematics question 26

The area (in sq. units) of the region enclosed between the parabola y2=2xy^2=2x and the line x+y=4x+y=4 is ______.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 18

Intersections. y22=4−y\frac{y^2}2=4-y gives y2+2y−8=0y^2+2y-8=0, y=2y=2 or −4-4.

Area (integrate in yy):
∫−42(4−y−y22)dy=[4y−y22−y36]−42=143+403=18.\int_{-4}^2\left(4-y-\frac{y^2}2\right)dy=\left[4y-\frac{y^2}2-\frac{y^3}6\right]_{-4}^2=\frac{14}3+\frac{40}3=18.

Answer: 18
