Q46 / 90 · JEE Main 2014 (09 Apr Online) · Mathematics

Let A=x,y:y2≤4x, y-2x≥-4. The area of the region A in square units is

  • A
    10
  • B
    8
  • Correct answer
    C
    9
  • D
    11

Solution

Given, y2=4x   ...1

y=2x−4⇒2x=y+4   ...2

Solving equations 1 & 2, we get

⇒y2=2y+8

⇒ y2-2y-8=0

⇒y-4y+2=0

⇒y=4, -2

From equation 2,

If y=4 then x=4 and if y=-2 then x=1.

Figure

A=∫044x dx-12×2×4+∫014xdx+12×1×2

=2x3/23204-4+2x3/23201+1

=438-4+431+1

=363-3

=9

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
