Full Chapter Summary & Detailed Notes - Application of Integrals Class 12 NCERT

“One should study Mathematics because it is only through Mathematics that nature can be conceived in harmonious form.” – Birkhoff

8.1 Introduction

In geometry, we have learned formulas to calculate areas of various geometrical figures including triangles, rectangles, trapeziums, and circles. Such formulas are fundamental in the applications of mathematics to many real-life problems. The formulas of elementary geometry allow us to calculate areas of many simple figures. However, they are inadequate for calculating the areas enclosed by curves. For that, we shall need some concepts of Integral Calculus.

In the previous chapter, we have studied to find the area bounded by the curve \( y = f(x) \), the ordinates \( x = a \), \( x = b \), and the x-axis, while calculating the definite integral as the limit of a sum. Here, in this chapter, we shall study a specific application of integrals to find the area under simple curves, area between lines and arcs of circles, parabolas, and ellipses (standard forms only). We shall also deal with finding the area bounded by the above-said curves.

Conceptual Diagram: Area Under Curve (Like Fig 8.1)

Consider the region bounded by \( y = f(x) \), x-axis from \( x = a \) to \( x = b \):

\[ \int_a^b f(x) \, dx = \lim_{\sum \Delta x_i \to 0} \sum f(x_i) \Delta x_i \]

This represents the area as infinite thin strips of width \( \Delta x \) and height \( f(x) \), summing to total area. Ties to the book's intuitive approach using vertical strips.

Why This Guide Stands Out (Expanded for 2025 Exams)

Comprehensive coverage mirroring NCERT pages 292-299: All subtopics point-wise with evidence (e.g., Ex 1 circle area \( \pi a^2 \)), full examples (e.g., ellipse \( \pi ab \)), derivations (limit to integral). Added 2025 relevance: Applications in physics (work done by variable force), engineering (volume of revolution). Processes for area calculation with step-by-step: Vertical/horizontal strips, symmetry exploitation. Proforma: Limits \( a \to b \), curve \( y=f(x) \), integrate \( \int y \, dx \), absolute for negative. Historical: Cauchy’s rigorous limit justification.

8.2 Area under Simple Curves

In the previous chapter, we have studied definite integral as the limit of a sum and how to evaluate definite integral using Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Now, we consider the easy and intuitive way of finding the area bounded by the curve \( y = f(x) \), x-axis, and the ordinates \( x = a \) and \( x = b \). From Fig 8.1, we can think of area under the curve as composed of a large number of very thin vertical strips. Consider an arbitrary strip of height \( y \) and width \( dx \), then \( dA \) (area of the elementary strip) = \( y \, dx \), where \( y = f(x) \).

This area is called the elementary area which is located at an arbitrary position within the region which is specified by some value of \( x \) between \( a \) and \( b \). We can think of the total area \( A \) of the region between x-axis, ordinates \( x = a \), \( x = b \), and the curve \( y = f(x) \) as the result of adding up the elementary areas of thin strips across the region PQRSP. Symbolically, we express

\[ A = \int_a^b dA = \int_a^b y \, dx = \int_a^b f(x) \, dx \]

The area \( A \) of the region bounded by the curve \( x = g(y) \), y-axis, and the lines \( y = c \), \( y = d \) is given by

\[ A = \int_c^d x \, dy = \int_c^d g(y) \, dy \]

Here, we consider horizontal strips as shown in Fig 8.2.

Step-by-Step Derivation: From Riemann Sum to Definite Integral
1. Partition [a,b] into n subintervals \( \Delta x_i = x_i - x_{i-1} \).
2. Area ≈ \( \sum_{i=1}^n f(x_i^*) \Delta x_i \), where \( x_i^* \) in [x_{i-1}, x_i].
3. Limit n→∞, max Δx→0: \( \int_a^b f(x) \, dx \).
4. FTC: \( \int_a^b f(x) \, dx = F(b) - F(a) \), F antiderivative.
Tip: For positive f(x) ≥0, area positive; else |∫| for geometric area.

Remark: If the position of the curve under consideration is below the x-axis, then since \( f(x) < 0 \) from \( x = a \) to \( x = b \), as shown in Fig 8.3, the area bounded by the curve, x-axis, and the ordinates \( x = a \), \( x = b \) comes out to be negative. But, it is only the numerical value of the area which is taken into consideration. Thus, if the area is negative, we take its absolute value, i.e., \( \left| \int_a^b f(x) \, dx \right| \).

Generally, it may happen that some portion of the curve is above x-axis and some is below the x-axis as shown in the Fig 8.4. Here, \( A_1 < 0 \) and \( A_2 > 0 \). Therefore, the area \( A \) bounded by the curve \( y = f(x) \), x-axis, and the ordinates \( x = a \) and \( x = b \) is given by \( A = |A_1| + A_2 \).

Expanded Derivation: Handling Signed Areas (Book-Style with Extensions)

Step 1: Compute signed area \( \int_a^b f(x) \, dx \).
Step 2: Identify intervals where f(x)>0 (above) and f(x)<0 (below).
Step 3: Total geometric area = \( \sum \left| \int_{intervals} f(x) \, dx \right| \).
Example Extension: For \( y = \sin x \) from 0 to 2π, signed=0, geometric=4.
Why? Symmetry: Positive humps cancel negative. Real app: Net displacement vs. total distance in physics.
Proof: By additivity of integral over subintervals.

Example 1 (Integrated: Circle Area)

Find the area enclosed by the circle \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \).

Solution: From Fig 8.5, the whole area enclosed by the given circle = 4 (area of the region AOBA bounded by the curve, x-axis, and the ordinates x=0 and x=a) [as the circle is symmetrical about both x-axis and y-axis] = \( 4 \int_0^a y \, dx \) (taking vertical strips) = \( 4 \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \, dx \).

Since \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \) gives \( y = \pm \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \). As the region AOBA lies in the first quadrant, y is taken as positive. Integrating, we get the whole area enclosed by the given circle

\[ = 4 \left[ \frac{x}{2} \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} + \frac{a^2}{2} \sin^{-1} \frac{x}{a} \right]_0^a = 4 \left( 0 + \frac{a^2}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2} - 0 \right) = \pi a^2. \]

Alternatively, considering horizontal strips as shown in Fig 8.6, the whole area of the region enclosed by circle = \( 4 \int_0^a x \, dy = 4 \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2 - y^2} \, dy \) (Why?) = same \( \pi a^2 \).

Key Insight: Symmetry multiplies quadrant area by 4; trig sub or standard integral for \( \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \).

Example 2 (Integrated: Ellipse Area)

Find the area enclosed by the ellipse \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \).

Solution: From Fig 8.7, the area of the region ABA′B′A bounded by the ellipse = 4 (area of the region AOBA in the first quadrant bounded by the curve, x-axis, and the ordinates x=0, x=a) (as the ellipse is symmetrical about both x-axis and y-axis) = \( 4 \int_0^a y \, dx \) (taking vertical strips).

Now \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) gives \( y = \pm b \sqrt{1 - \frac{x^2}{a^2}} \), but as the region AOBA lies in the first quadrant, y is taken as positive. So, the required area is

\[ 4 \int_0^a b \sqrt{1 - \frac{x^2}{a^2}} \, dx = 4b \left[ \frac{x}{2} \sqrt{1 - \frac{x^2}{a^2}} + \frac{a^2}{2} \sin^{-1} \frac{x}{a} \right]_0^a = \pi a b. \]

Alternatively, considering horizontal strips as shown in the Fig 8.8, the area of the ellipse is \( 4 \int_0^b x \, dy = 4 \int_0^b a \sqrt{1 - \frac{y^2}{b^2}} \, dy \) (Why?) = same \( \pi a b \).

Extended Application: Parametric Forms
For ellipse parametric \( x = a \cos \theta \), \( y = b \sin \theta \), area = \( \int_0^{2\pi} \frac{1}{2} a b (\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta) d\theta = \pi a b \).
Tip: Use symmetry to reduce to first quadrant ×4.

Exercise 8.1 Tease & Miscellaneous Examples

Exercise focuses on ellipse areas, circle segments, parabola regions. Ex: Ellipse \( \frac{x^2}{16} + \frac{y^2}{9} =1 \), area= \( 4 \int_0^4 3 \sqrt{1 - x^2/16} dx = 48 \sin^{-1}(1/4) + ... = 12\pi \).

Misc Ex 3: Line y=3x+2 from x=-1 to 1, crosses x at -2/3, area = ∫_{-2/3}^{-1} |3x+2| dx + ∫_{-1}^1 (3x+2) dx wait, detailed in solved. Misc Ex 4: cos x from 0 to 2π, |∫| over humps=4.
