The area of the region enclosed by $y=x+2$ and $y=x^2+x-2$ is :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → $\frac{32}{3}units^2$
$y=x^2+x-2⇒y=(x+2)(x-1)$ ...(1)
$y=x+2$ ...(2)
finding intersection points
$(x+2)=(x+2)(x-1)$
$(x+2)(x-2)=0$
$x=2,-2$
$y=4,0$
area = $-\int\limits_{-2}^1(x^2+x-2)dx+\int\limits_{-2}^2x+2dx-\int\limits_{1}^2x^2+x-2dx$
$=-\left[\frac{x^3}{3}+\frac{x^2}{2}-2x\right]_{-2}^1+\left[\frac{x^2}{2}+2x\right]_{-2}^2-\left[\frac{x^3}{3}+\frac{x^2}{2}-2x\right]_1^2$
$=\frac{32}{3}units$
