Find the area of the region {(x, y): x2 + y2 ≤ 1 ≤ x + y}.

Solution

The given region is
                  open curly brackets open parentheses straight x comma space straight y close parentheses colon straight x squared plus straight y squared less or equal than 1 less or equal than straight x plus straight y close curly brackets
Consider the equations
                    straight x squared plus straight y squared space equals 1                             ...(1)
           and   x + y = 1                                   ...(2)
From (2),  y = 1 - x                                      ...(3)

Putting this value of y in (1), we get,
                   straight x squared plus left parenthesis 1 minus straight x right parenthesis squared space equals space 1 space space space rightwards double arrow space space 2 straight x squared minus 2 straight x space equals space 0
rightwards double arrow                         straight x squared minus straight x space equals 0 space space space rightwards double arrow space space straight x left parenthesis straight x minus 1 right parenthesis space equals space 0 space space space rightwards double arrow space space straight x space equals space 0 comma space space 1
therefore space space space from space left parenthesis 3 right parenthesis comma space space straight y space equals space 1 minus 0 comma space space 1 minus 1 space equals space 1 comma space space 0
therefore space space space circle space left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis space and space st. space line space straight x space plus space straight y space equals space 1 space space intersect space in space the space points space straight A thin space left parenthesis 1 comma space 0 right parenthesis space and space straight B left parenthesis 0 comma space 1 right parenthesis.

equals space open square brackets open parentheses 0 plus 1 half sin to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight x close parentheses space open parentheses 0 plus 1 half sin to the power of negative 1 end exponent 0 close parentheses close square brackets space minus open square brackets open parentheses 1 minus 1 half close parentheses minus left parenthesis 0 minus 0 right parenthesis close square brackets
equals space 1 half open parentheses straight pi over 2 close parentheses minus 1 half space equals open parentheses straight pi over 4 minus 1 half close parentheses space sq. space units. space
