The area of the smaller region bounded by the ellipse x29+y24=1\frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1 and the line x3+y2=1\frac{x}{3} + \frac{y}{2} = 1 is :

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Area of quarter ellipse =πab4=π⋅3⋅24=3π2= \frac{\pi ab}{4} = \frac{\pi \cdot 3 \cdot 2}{4} = \frac{3\pi}{2}. Area of triangle =12(3)(2)=3= \frac{1}{2}(3)(2) = 3. Smaller region =3π2−3=32(π−2)= \frac{3\pi}{2} - 3 = \frac{3}{2}(\pi - 2).
