Question:- Find the area common to the circle x² + y² = 16a² and the parabola y² = 16ax. Hence find the larger of the area into which the circle is divided by the parabola.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Equation of circle,
x² + y² = 16a² ...................i)
By comparing this equation with equation of circle x² + y² = r²,
We get, r = 4a units.
So area of circle = 16a²π units²
Also equation of parabola,
y² = 6ax ...............ii)
First of all we need to find the intersection of both conics i.e. circle and parabola.
So putting the value of y² from equation ii) in equation i),
We get,
x² + 6ax = 16a²
x² + 6ax - 16a² = 0
x² + 8ax - 2ax - 16a² = 0
x(x + 8a) -2a(x + 8a) = 0
(x + 8a)(x - 2a) = 0
∴ x = -8a or x = 2a
By putting x = -8a in equation ii), we get a imaginary value of y. Therefore this value of x = 8a is negligible.
Now,
Putting x = 2a in equation ii)
y² = 6a × 2a
y² = 14a²
y = ±a√14
y = ±2a√3
So, intersecting points of given circle and parabola are (2a , 2a√3) and (2a, - 2a√3)
By figure area common to circle and parabola is OABCO.
By symmetry we can are that area of OABO and OBCO are equal.
Area of OABCO = 2(area of OABO)
Now we will find the area of OABO = S(say
Now,
Area of larger section divided by Parabola,
