The area (in sq. units) bounded by the parabola y2=xy^2 = x and line x=4x = 4 in first quadrant is equal to AA, then which of the following statements is/are TRUE ?

A. A=163A = \dfrac{16}{3}

B. A=∫04x dxA = \displaystyle\int_0^4 \sqrt{x}\, dx

C. A=2∫04x dxA = 2\displaystyle\int_0^4 \sqrt{x}\, dx

D. A=∫02y2 dyA = \displaystyle\int_0^2 y^2\, dy

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

In the first quadrant y=xy=\sqrt{x}, so A=∫04x dx=23(8)=163A=\int_0^4\sqrt{x}\,dx=\frac{2}{3}(8)=\frac{16}{3}, making A and B true. C doubles this value. Integrating along yy would require ∫02(4−y2) dy\int_0^2(4-y^2)\,dy, whereas ∫02y2 dy=83\int_0^2 y^2\,dy=\frac{8}{3}, so D is false.
