The line y = x, partition the area of the circle (x – 1)2 + y2 = 1, into two segments. The area of the major segment is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
At point of intersection y = x
$⇒ (x - 1)^2 + x^2 = 1$
$⇒ 2x^2-2x=0$
$⇒ 2x(x - 1) = 0$
x = 0, x = 1
y = 0, y = 1
Area of major portion
$=\frac{3}{4}×π(1)^2+\frac{1}{2}×1×1$
$=\frac{3π}{4}+\frac{1}{2}$
Option D is correct.
