[Kerala (Engg.) 2002]

Options:

A) $ \frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{5} $

B) $ \frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{2} $

C) $ \frac{{{\pi }^{2}}}{3} $

D) $ \frac{\pi }{4}-\frac{1}{2} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

$ x^{2}+y^{2}=1,x+y=1 $ meet when $ x^{2}+{{(1-x)}^{2}}=1\Rightarrow x^{2}+1+x^{2}-2x=1 $

$ \Rightarrow 2x^{2}-2x=0\Rightarrow 2x(x-1)=0 $

$ \Rightarrow x=0,x=1 $

therefore $ y=1,y=0 $ , i.e., $ A(1,0);B(0,1) $

Required area $ =\int_0^{1}{[\sqrt{1-x^{2}}-(1-x)]} $ dx $ =[ \frac{x\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}{{\sin }^{-1}}x-x+\frac{x^{2}}{2} ]_0^{1} $

$ =\frac{1}{2}.\frac{\pi }{2}-1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{\pi }{4}-\frac{1}{2} $ .
