Q.
The length of sub-normal at any point P(x,y) on the curve, which is passing through M(0,1) is unity. The area bounded by the curves satisfying this condition is equal to
We have ∣∣dxydy∣∣=1⇒∫ydy=∫±dx⇒2y2=±x+C But M(0,1) satisfy it, so C=21 ⇒y2=±2x+1
Let C1:y2=2(x+21) and C2:y2=−2(x−21)
Clearly required area =42−1∫02x+1dx=34 (square units)
