Q.

The area of the region enclosed by the curve y=x3 and its tangent at the point (-1,-1) is      [2023]

1 274      
2 314      
3 234      
4 194  

Ans.

(1)

Given, y=x3

Equation of tangent to the curve y=x3 at point (-1,-1) is

y+1=3(x+1)  y=3x+2

Point of intersection with the curve is (2,8)

So, area =-12[(3x+2)-x3]dx

=[3×x22+2x-x44]-12

=274 sq. units
