Using the method of method of integration, find the area of the region bounded by the following lines: 3x – y – 3 = 0, 2x + y – 12 = 0, x – 2y – 1 = 0
Solution:
Given equations are: 3x – y – 3 = 0 ... (1) 2x + y – 12 = 0 ... (2) x – 2y – 1 = 0 ... (3)
To Solve (1) and (2), (1) + (2) ⇒ 5x = 15 ⇒ x = 3 (2) ⇒ y = 12 - 6 = 6 Thus (1) and (2) intersect at C (3, 6). To solve (2) and (3), (2) - 2 (3) ⇒ 5y = 10 ⇒ y = 2 (2) ⇒ 2x = 12 - 2 = 10 ⇒ x = 5 Thus (2) and (3) intersect at B (5, 2). To solve (3) and (1), 2 (1) - (3) ⇒ 5x = 5 ⇒ x = 1 (3) ⇒ 1 - 2y = 1 ⇒ y = 0 Thus (3) and (1) intersect at A(1, 0). Area = (3x - 3) dx + (12 - 2x) dx - (x - 1) dx = 3 + - = 3 + [(60 - 25) - (36 - 9)] - = 3 + [35 - 27] - = 6 + 8 - 4 = 10 sq. units
