Options
- A4 3
- B8 3
- C20 3
- D2 3
Correct answer
A. 4 3
Step-by-step solution
The given curve is y = 2x - x^2 . To find the points of intersection with the X-axis, set y = 0 : 2x - x^2 = 0 x(2 - x) = 0 x = 0, x = 2 The required area is the integral of the curve from x = 0 to x = 2 : A = ₀² (2x - x^2) dx A = [ x^2 - x^3 3 ]₀² A = ( 2^2 - 2^3 3 ) - 0 A = 4 - 8 3 = 4 3 sq. units.
