On graph paper, sketch the function . Shade the area under the curve for . .

  1. Use geometry to calculate this area. Hint: Draw in a radius to create two easier regions whose difference is the shaded region.

    You should recognize as the equation of a semicircle, centered at the origin, with radius .

    View the eTool. The height of the triangle is and the hypotenuse is . Use these lengths to calculate the measure of the central angle.

  2. Calculate the area under the curve for .

  3. Calculate the area under the curve for .
