Area Question 21

Question 21

  1. Let f:[1,2][0,) be a continuous function such that f(x)=f(1x),x[1,2]. If R1=12xf(x)dx and R2 are the area of the region bounded by y=f(x),x=1,x=2 and the X-axis. Then,

(2011) (a) R1=2R2 (c) 2R1=R2 (b) R1=3R2 (d) 3R1=R2

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. R1=12xf(x)dx

Using abf(x)dx=abf(a+bx)dx

R1=12(1x)f(1x)dx R1=12(1x)f(x)dx

[f(x)=f(1x), given ]

Given, R2 is area bounded by f(x),x=1 and x=2.

R2=12f(x)dx

On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get

2R1=12f(x)dx

From Eqs. (iii) and (iv), we get

2R1=R2
