    The area (in square unit) of the region bounded by the y-axis and the curve \[2x={{y}^{2}}-1\]is

    A)  \[1/3\]           

    B)  \[2/3\]

    C)  \[1\]              

    D)  \[2\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given curve is \[2x={{y}^{2}}-1\] Required area \[=|\int_{-1}^{1}{x\,dy|}\] \[=\left| \int_{-1}^{1}{\left( \frac{{{y}^{2}}-1}{2} \right)dy} \right|\] \[=\left| 2\int_{0}^{1}{\left( \frac{{{y}^{2}}-1}{2} \right)dy} \right|\] \[=\left| \left[ \frac{{{y}^{3}}}{3}-y \right]_{0}^{1} \right|\] \[=\left| \frac{1}{3}-1 \right|=\frac{2}{3}\,sq\,unit\]
