The area of the region bounded by curves y=x2y=x^2 and line y=4y=4 is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

The curve meets the line at x=±2x=\pm2, and by symmetry the area is 2∫02(4−x2)dx2\int_0^2(4-x^2)dx.

This equals 2[4x−x33]02=2(8−83)=3232\left[4x-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^2=2\left(8-\frac{8}{3}\right)=\frac{32}{3} square units.
