Question 1:
Find the area of the circle 4x2 + 4y2 = 9 which is interior to the parabola x2 = 4y
The required area is represented by the shaded area OBCDO.
Solving the given equation of circle, 4x2 + 4y2 = 9, and parabola, x2 = 4y, we obtain the point of intersection as
.
It can be observed that the required area is symmetrical about y-axis.
∴ Area OBCDO = 2 × Area OBCO
We draw BM perpendicular to OA.
Therefore, the coordinates of M are
.
