Area under and between curves

1. Find the area A of the region to the left of the parabola 𝒙 = −𝒚𝟐 + 𝟒 and
the right of the y-axis.
2. Sketch the curves 𝒚 = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑 and 𝒚 = 𝟕 − 𝟑𝒙 and determine the area
enclosed by them.

Volume of Solids of revolution


4. The area enclosed by the two curves 𝒚 = 𝒙𝟐 and 𝒚 = 𝟖 − 𝒙𝟐 is rotated
3600 about the x-axis. determine the volume of the solid of revolution
produced.
For intersection points, y = x 2 = 8 − x 2 ⇒ x =-2, 2

5. Determine the position of the centroid of a sheet of metal formed by the
curve 𝒚 = 𝟒𝒙 − 𝒙𝟐 which lies above the x-axis.
