The area (in sq. units) of the region in the first quadrant enclosed between the line x+y=2x + y = 2, parabola y2=xy^2 = x and the x-axis, is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Solve y2=2−yy^2 = 2-y to get y=1y=1 (first quadrant), so the curves meet at (1,1)(1,1).

Integrating horizontally is cleanest: for yy from 00 to 11, xx runs from the parabola x=y2x=y^2 to the line x=2−yx=2-y.

A=∫01(2−y−y2) dy=2−12−13=76A=\int_0^1 (2-y-y^2)\,dy = 2-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{7}{6}.
