Area lying between the curve y 2 = 4x and y = 2x is
A.
B.
C.
D.
The area lying between the curve, y2 = 4x and y = 2x, is represented by the shaded area OBAO as
The points of intersection of these curves are O (0, 0) and A (1, 2).
We draw AC perpendicular to x-axis such that the coordinates of C are (1, 0).
∴ Area OBAO = Area (ΔOCA) – Area (OCABO)
Thus, the correct answer is B.
