Question
Draw a graph of y2 = 16 x and x2 = 16y, and evaluate the area between them.
Solution
The equations of curves are
...(1)
and
...(2)
From (2),
...(3)
Putting this value of y in (1), we get,

or


O(0, 0), P(16, 16)
From P, draw PM

Required area = Area OAPB = Area OBPM - area OAPM

and

From (2),

Putting this value of y in (1), we get,

or



O(0, 0), P(16, 16)
From P, draw PM


Required area = Area OAPB = Area OBPM - area OAPM
