Let g x = cos x 2 ,   f x = x , and α , β α < β be the roots of the quadratic…

Let gx=cosx2, fx=x, and α,βα<β be the roots of the quadratic equation 18x2-9πx+π2=0. Then the area (in sq. units) bounded by the curve y=gofx and the lines x=α,x=β and y=0, is
  1. 122-1
  2. 123-1
  3. 123+1
  4. 123-2

Solution

Given, gx=cosx2, fx=x

Given quadratic is 18x2-9πx+π2=0

The roots are x=9π±81π2-72π22×18

x=9π±9π236

x=9±3π36

x=π3, π6

y=gofx=cosx2=cosx

Required Area =π6π3cosx dx=sinxπ6π3
