Area of Bounded Regions · Question 47 of 115

The figure shows the smaller part of the circle x^2 + y^2 = 16 cut off by the line x = 2√(2).

Question 47

HardOriginal question

The figure shows the smaller part of the circle x2+y2=16x^{2} + y^{2} = 16 cut off by the line x=22x = 2\sqrt{2}. What is its area?

A circle of radius 4 about the origin, with the part to the right of the line x = 2√2 shaded

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. The part is symmetric about the xx-axis: 2∫22416−x2 dx2\int_{2\sqrt{2}}^{4} \sqrt{16 - x^{2}}\,dx.

  2. ∫16−x2 dx=x216−x2+8sin⁡−1x4\int \sqrt{16 - x^{2}}\,dx = \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{16 - x^{2}} + 8\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{4}; between the limits this gives 2π−42\pi - 4, so the area is 4π−84\pi - 8.

Worth noting

2π−42\pi - 4 is the part above the xx-axis only.
