Using integration, find the area of the region bounded by the triangle whose vertices are (-2, 1), (0, 4) and (2, 3).
OR
Find the area bounded by the circle
and the line
in the first quadrant, using integration.

Let the vertices be A(−2,1), B(0,4), and C(2,3).
∴ The equation of AB is;
![]()
∴ 3x − 2y + 8 = 0
∴ The equation of BC is;
![]()
∴ x + 2y − 8 = 0
∴ The equation of AC is;
![]()
∴ x − 2y + 4 = 0
∴ Required area =


= 0 + 0 − 3 + 8 + 1 + 8 − 0 − 0 − (1 + 4 − 1 + 4)
= 4 sq.unit
OR

By solving the equations x2 + y2 = 16 and x = √3 y
3y2 + y2 = 16
∴ y = 2 ⇒ x = √3 y = x√3
So the point of intersection is (2√3,2)
