Q58 Objective Physics Vol-1 Graphs MCQ
24 Jul 2026
Concept: The equation $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ represents an ellipse centered at the origin. The region above the $X$-axis corresponds to the upper half of the ellipse where $y \ge 0$, bounded by $x = -a$ and $x = a$. The area $A$ of this region is given by:
$A = \int_{-a}^{a} y \, dx = \int_{-a}^{a} b \sqrt{1 - \frac{x^2}{a^2}} \, dx$
Alternatively, since the total area of an ellipse is $\pi a b$, the area above the $X$-axis is half of the total area, which is $\frac{1}{2} \pi a b$.
For the curve $\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{y^2}{9} = 1$, evaluate the area of the region under the curve and above the $X$-axis.
A.

B.

C.
$3\pi$ sq units
D.
$6\pi$ sq units
