MHT CET · Maths · Area Under Curves

The ratio of the areas bounded by the curves \(\mathrm{y}=\cos x\) and \(\mathrm{y}=\cos 2 x\) between \(x=0, x=\frac{\pi}{3}\) and X -axis is

  1. A \(\sqrt{2}: 1\)
  2. B \(1: 1\)
  3. C \(2: 1\)
  4. D \(1: 3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(A_1 = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{3}} \cos x \, dx = [\sin x]_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{3}}\) \(A_1 = \sin(\frac{\pi}{3}) - \sin(0) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
