JEE Main 2025 Jan 29 Shift 2, Mathematics Q3: Area as Definite Integral

JEE Main2025Jan 29, Shift 2Mathematics
Q.

Let the area enclosed between the curves and be . If ; are integers, then the value of equals

  1. A

  2. B

  3. C

  4. D

Solution

Both curves are symmetric about the - and -axes, so compute the first-quadrant area and quadruple it. In the first quadrant the parabola is and the circle is , with on .

First-quadrant slice between the two:

.

Hence , so .

Comparing with gives , , and .
