The area of the region \ (x, y): y ≤ π - |x|, y ≤ |x x|, y ≥ 0\ is:

The area of the region {(x,y):y≤π−∣x∣,y≤∣xsin⁡x∣,y≥0}\{(x, y): y \leq \pi - |x|, y \leq |x \sin x|, y \geq 0\} is:

Options

  1. A1+π281 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{8}
  2. B2+π242 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{4}
  3. Cπ28−1\dfrac{\pi^2}{8} - 1
  4. D4+π224 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{2}

Correct answer

B. 2+π242 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{4}

Step-by-step solution

The given region is defined by the inequalities y≤π−∣x∣y \leq \pi - |x|, y≤∣xsin⁡x∣y \leq |x \sin x|, and y≥0y \geq 0.

Since replacing xx with −x-x leaves the inequalities unchanged, the region is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. We can find the area of the region in the first quadrant (x≥0x \geq 0) and multiply it by 22.

For x≥0x \geq 0, the inequalities become:
y≤π−xy \leq \pi - x
y≤xsin⁡xy \leq x \sin x
y≥0y \geq 0

The condition y≥0y \geq 0 and y≤π−xy \leq \pi - x restricts xx to the interval [0,π][0, \pi]. In this interval, sin⁡x≥0\sin x \geq 0, so ∣xsin⁡x∣=xsin⁡x|x \sin x| = x \sin x.

To find the intersection of the curves y=π−xy = \pi - x and y=xsin⁡xy = x \sin x, we equate them:
xsin⁡x=π−x⇒x(1+sin⁡x)=πx \sin x = \pi - x \Rightarrow x(1 + \sin x) = \pi

By inspection, x=π2x = \dfrac{\pi}{2} is a solution since π2(1+1)=π\dfrac{\pi}{2}(1 + 1) = \pi.

For x∈[0,π2]x \in \left[0, \dfrac{\pi}{2}\right], xsin⁡x≤π−xx \sin x \leq \pi - x.
For x∈[π2,π]x \in \left[\dfrac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right], xsin⁡x≥π−xx \sin x \geq \pi - x.

The area in the first quadrant, A1A_1, is given by:
A1=∫0π/2xsin⁡x dx+∫π/2π(π−x) dxA_1 = \int_{0}^{\pi/2} x \sin x \, dx + \int_{\pi/2}^{\pi} (\pi - x) \, dx

Evaluating the first integral using integration by parts:
∫0π/2xsin⁡x dx=[−xcos⁡x]0π/2−∫0π/2(−cos⁡x) dx\int_{0}^{\pi/2} x \sin x \, dx = [-x \cos x]_{0}^{\pi/2} - \int_{0}^{\pi/2} (-\cos x) \, dx
=0+[sin⁡x]0π/2=1= 0 + [\sin x]_{0}^{\pi/2} = 1

Evaluating the second integral:
∫π/2π(π−x) dx=[−(π−x)22]π/2π=0−(−π28)=π28\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi} (\pi - x) \, dx = \left[ -\dfrac{(\pi - x)^2}{2} \right]_{\pi/2}^{\pi} = 0 - \left( -\dfrac{\pi^2}{8} \right) = \dfrac{\pi^2}{8}

Thus, the area in the first quadrant is:
A1=1+π28A_1 = 1 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{8}

The total area of the region is twice the area in the first quadrant:
Total Area=2×A1=2(1+π28)=2+π24\text{Total Area} = 2 \times A_1 = 2 \left( 1 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{8} \right) = 2 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{4}

Answer: 2+π242 + \dfrac{\pi^2}{4}
