Options
- A8 3 a^2 sq. units
- B2 3 a^2 sq. units
- C4 3 a^2 sq. units
- D8 a ^2 aq. units
Correct answer
A. 8 3 a^2 sq. units
Step-by-step solution
Required area is shaded. Point of intersection of x=a and y^2=4 a x , is y^2=4 a^2 y= 2 a and x=a (a, 2 a) aligned & A =2 ₀^ a (2 a x ) dx & =4 a ₀^ a x ^ 1 2 dx =4 a [ x ^ 3 2 ( 3 2 ) ]₀^ a =(4 a ) ( 2 3 )( a a )= 8 3 a ^2 sq. units aligned
