(1985, 5M)

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. Given curves y=5x2 and y=|x1| could be sketched as shown, whose point of intersection are 5x2=(x1)2

5x2=x22x+1

2x22x4=0 x=2,1

Required area

=125x2dx11(x+1)dx12(x1)dx

=x25x2+52sin1x25x22+x11x22x12

=1+52sin1251+52sin115

12+1+12+12212+1

=52sin125+sin11512

=52sin125115+1514512

=52sin1(1)12=5π412 sq units
