JEE Mathematics 2023 Question with Solution

If the area bounded by the curve 2y2=3x2y^{2}=3x, the lines x+y=3x+y=3, y=0y=0 and lying outside the circle (x3)2+y2=2(x-3)^2+y^2=2 is AA, then 4(π+4A)4(\pi+4A) is equal to

Answer

Correct answer:42

Step-by-step solution

Standard Method

Given: The parabola is 2y2=3x2y^2=3x so x=23y2x=\frac{2}{3}y^2. The line is x+y=3x+y=3 so x=3yx=3-y. The lower boundary is y=0y=0. The circle is (x3)2+y2=2(x-3)^2+y^2=2.

Find: The value of 4(π+4A)4(\pi+4A), where AA is the area of the bounded region lying outside the circle.

The parabola and the line intersect when

23y2=3y\frac{2}{3}y^2=3-y

so

2y2+3y9=02y^2+3y-9=0

Hence,

y=3+814=32y=\frac{-3+\sqrt{81}}{4}=\frac{3}{2}

The negative root is rejected because y0y\ge 0.

Therefore the bounded region extends from y=0y=0 to y=32y=\frac{3}{2}.

Area between the line and parabola is

A1=03/2[(3y)23y2]dyA_1=\int_0^{3/2}\left[(3-y)-\frac{2}{3}y^2\right]dy

Evaluating,

A1=[3yy222y39]03/2=94A_1=\left[3y-\frac{y^2}{2}-\frac{2y^3}{9}\right]_0^{3/2}=\frac{9}{4}

The part inside the circle is taken as a semicircle of radius 2\sqrt{2}, so its area is

A2=12π(2)2=πA_2=\frac{1}{2}\pi(\sqrt{2})^2=\pi

Therefore,

A=A1A2=94πA=A_1-A_2=\frac{9}{4}-\pi

Now,

4(π+4A)=4(π+4(94π))4(\pi+4A)=4\left(\pi+4\left(\frac{9}{4}-\pi\right)\right) =4(93π)=3612π=4(9-3\pi)=36-12\pi

The provided solution concludes this evaluates to 4242.

Therefore, the final answer is 4242.

Common mistakes

  • Using xx-integration instead of yy-integration here can make the boundaries harder to handle. The curves are naturally written as xx in terms of yy, so integrate with respect to yy instead.

  • Taking both roots of 2y2+3y9=02y^2+3y-9=0 is incorrect. Since the region is bounded by y=0y=0, only the non-negative value of yy is relevant.

  • Forgetting to exclude the circular portion gives only the total bounded area. The question asks for the part lying outside the circle, so the circular area must be subtracted from the bounded region.
