Using integration, find the area of triangle ABC, whose vertices are A(2, 5), B(4, 7), and C(6, 2).
OR
Find the area of the region lying above the x-axis and included between the circle x2 + y2 = 8x and inside of the parabola y2 = 4x.
Plotting the points, we get,

Let us first find the equation of sides of the triangle,
Equation of line passing from points P(x1, y1) and Q(x2, y2) is given by:
![]()
Therefore,
Equation of AB: ![]()
y – 5 = (x – 2)
y = x + 3
Equation of BC: ![]()
![]()
![]()
Equation of AC: ![]()

![]()
Now, let us look at the limits that we have to take,

Therefore,



Area = 21 square units.
OR
Given Curves: C1: x2 + y2 = 8x
C2: y2 = 4x
Let us find the intersection point of the curves.
Putting the value of y2 from second curve in first curve,
x2 + 4x = 8x
x2 – 4x = 0
x(x – 4) = 0
x = 0 or x = 4
And,
y2 = 4.0, y = 0
y2 = 4.4, y = ± 4
On plotting we will get,

Area required is shared in the given figure,
Area required will be found by:

Therefore,
Area required = Area OPC + Area PCQ
For parabola, y = ±√4x
y = ±2√x
Area OPC ![]()

![]()
![]()
Now, for circle,
Area of PCQ ![]()



Now, we know that,
![]()
Therefore,
Area PCQ ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
= 4π
