Question1
Let A1 be the area of the region bounded by the curves
y = sin x, y = cos x and y-axis in the first quadrant. Also, let A2 be the
area of the region bounded by the curves y = sin x, y = cos x, x-axis and
x = π2 in the first quadrant. Then,
[26 Feb 2021 Shift 2]
Options:

A. A1 : A2 = 1 : √2 and A1 + A2 = 1

B. A1 = A2 and A1 + A2 = sqrt 2

C. 2A1 = A2 and A1 + A2 = 1 + √2

D. A1 : A2 = 1 : 2 and A1 + A2 = 1

Answer: A

Solution:

Solution:

A1 is the area of region OAB.


A2 is the area of region OBC.

Coordinate of B is ( π4, 1
√2 )
π
Now, A1 = 4 (cos x − sin x)d x

0
= [sin x + cos x]0π ∕ 4

= ( sin π4 + cos π4 ) − (0 + 1) = √2 − 1
π π
A2 = ∫ 4 sin x d x + ∫ 2 cos x d x
0 π
4
= [sin x + cos x]0π ∕ 4

= ( sin π4 + cos π4 ) − (0 + 1) = √2 − 1
π π
A2 = ∫ 4 sin x d x + ∫ 2 cos x d x
0 π
4
π π
A2 = [−cos x]0 4 + [sin x] π 2 = √2 (√2 − 1)
4
Now, A1 : A2 = (√2 − 1) : √2 (√2 − 1)
A1 : A2 = 1 : √2
and A1 + A2 = (√2 − 1) + √2 (√2 − 1) = (√2 − 1)(√2 + 1)
A1 + A2 = 2 − 1 = 1
Therefore,
and A1 : A2 = 1 : √2 ,
A1 + A2 = 1

5π ∕ 4
= [−cos x − sin x]π ∕ 4

∴ A = = 2√2

B. 12√3 square units

C. 9√3 square units

D. 6√3 square units

Answer: B

Solution:

Solution:
2 2
Given, R = {(x, y) : 5x ≤ y ≤ 2x + 9}
2 2
Here, we have two curves y = 5x and y = 2x + 9, point of intersection of both curves is find by solving both equations
i.e.
5x2 = 2x2 + 9

⇒ x = 3 ⇒ x = ±√3

If the area of the triangle formed by the positive x-axis, the normal and

then 24A is equal to ......... .
[24 Feb 2021 Shift 2]

Answer: 1225

Solution:

Solution:
Given, circle (x − 2)2 + (y − 3)2 = 52
c = (2, 3)
r=5

Equation of normal at P (i.e. PA line)


⇒ (y − 7) =
7−3
5−2 ( (x − 5) )
⇒ 3y − 21 = 4x − 20
⇒ 4x − 3y + 1 = 0
Therefore, M =

Now, equation of tangent at P.
y−7 =

(x − 5) ∵ slope of PN = [ −1

⇒4y − 28 = −3x + 15
⇒3x + 4y = 43
Therefore, N =

But this question is wrong as in question. It is mentioned that the triangle is formed with the positive X -axis which
contradicts the solution.

Question78
The area bounded by the curves y = ln x, y = ln | x | ,y = | ln x| and
y = | ln | x|| is
[2002]
Options:

A. 4sq. units

B. 6 sq. units

C. 10 sq. units

D. none of these

Answer: A

Solution:

Solution:
[Note: Graph of y = | f (x)| can be obtained from the graph of the curve y = f (x) by drawing the mirror image of the
portion of the graph below x -axis, with respect to x -axis.
Hence the bounded area is as shown by combined all figure.
