The area of the region lying above \(X\) -axis, and included between the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}=2 a x\) and the parabola \(y^{2}=a x, a>0\) is

  1. A \(8 \pi a^{2}\)
  2. B \(a^{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{2}{3}\right)\)
  3. C \(\frac{16 \pi a^{2}}{9}\)
  4. D \(\pi\left(\frac{27}{8}+3 a^{2}\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(a^{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{2}{3}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, equation of circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}=2 a x\) \(\Rightarrow\) \((x-a)^{2}+y^{2}=a^{2}\) and equation of parabola is \(y^{2}=a x, a>0\) Intersection points of circle and parabola \(\begin{array}{lr}\Rightarrow & x^{2}+a x=2 a x \\ \Rightarrow & x^{2}=a x\end{array}\)…
