Area of the region bounded by the curve $y=e^x$ and lines $x=0$ and $y=e$ is

Area of the region bounded by the curve $y=e^x$ and lines $x=0$ and $y=e$ is
  1. $e-1$
  2. $\int_1^e \ln (e+1-y) d y$
  3. $e-\int_0^1 e^x d x$
  4. $\int_1^e \ln y d y$

Solution

Shaded area $=e-\left(\int_0^1 e^x d x\right)=1$ Also, $\quad \int_1^e \ln (e+1-y) d y$
$ \begin{aligned} & =\int_e^q \ln t(-d t) \\ & \text { [put } e+1-y=t \Rightarrow-d y=d t \text { ] } \\ & =\int_1^e \ln t d t=\int_1^e \ln y d y=1 \end{aligned} $
