The area enclosed between the curves $y=x^2$ and $x=y^2$ is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
So $y=x^2$, and $x=y^2$
finding area along x-axis
uppor cueve $y^2=x$
$\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{x}$
lower corve
$y=x^2$
intersecting points
$x^2=\sqrt{x}$
So x = 0, 1
y = 0, 1
So area
$=\int\limits_0^1 \sqrt{x}-x^2 d x$
area $=\int\limits_0^1 \sqrt{x}-x^2 d x= \left[\frac{x^{\frac{1}{2}+1}}{\frac{1}{2}+1}-\frac{x^{2+1}}{2+1}\right]_0^1$
$=\left[\frac{2}{3} x^{3 / 2}-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^1$
$=\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{3}$
$=\frac{1}{3}$
