KEY CONCEPT INVOLVED

Area Under Simple Curves
1. Let us find the area bounded by the curve y = f (x), x-axis and the ordinated x = a and x = b. Consider the
area under the curve as composed of large number of thin vertical strips let there be an arbitary strip of
hieght y and width dx.Area of elementary strip dA= ydx, where y = f (x). Total Area A of the region between
x-axis.ordinated x = a, x = b and the curve y = f (x) = Sum of areas of elementry thin strips across the region

3. If the curve under consideration lies below x-axis, then f (x) < 0 from x = a to x = b, the area bounded by the
curve y = f (x), and the ordinates x = a, x = b and x-axis is negative. But the numerical value of the area is to

 4. Let some portion of the curve is above x-axis and some portion is below x-axis. Let A1 be the area below
x-axis and A2 be the area above of x-axis.Therefore Area bounded by the curve y = f (x), x-axis and the
ordinates x = a and x = b.

Area between Two curves

5. Let the two curves be y = f (x) and y = g (x). Suppose these curves intersect at x = a and x = b. Consider the
elementary strip of height y where y = f (x) – g (x) with width dx

6. If the two curves y = f (x) and y = g (x) intersects at x = a, x = c and x = b such that a < c < b. If f (x) > g (x) in
[a, c] and f (x) < g (x) in [c, b], Then the area of the regions bounded by curve.
