Applications of the

Integral
Areas
Example (1)
Find the area A of the region bounded by:
y=x2 + 1, y=x , x=0 & x=1.
Example (2)
Find the area A of the region bounded by:
y=x2, y=2x-x2
 Intersections of the Two Curves

Let :
x2  2x  x2
 2x2  2x  0
 2 x( x  1)  0
 x  0 or x  1
 The graphs intersect at the p oi nt s :
(0,0) and (1,1) Why ?
