Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope by using two points

( -1,0) and (0,1)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (1-0)/(0- -1)

= ( 1-0)/(0+1)

1/1

$\displaystyle\int_0^2\sqrt{4-x^2}\,\mathrm dx$

Recall that a circle of radius 2 centered at the origin has equation

$x^2+y^2=4\implies y=\pm\sqrt{4-x^2}$

where the positive root gives the top half of the circle in the x-y plane. The definite integral corresponds to the area of the right half of this top half. Since the area of a circle with radius $r$ is $\pi r^2$ , it follows that the area of a quarter-circle would be $\dfrac{\pi r^2}4$ .

You have $r=2$ , so the definite integral is equal to $\dfrac{2^2\pi}4=\pi$ .

Another way to verify this is to actually compute the integral. Let $x=2\sin u$ , so that $\mathrm dx=2\cos u\,\mathrm du$ . Now

$\displaystyle\int_0^2\sqrt{4-x^2}\,\mathrm dx=\int_0^{\pi/2}\sqrt{4-(2\sin u)^2}(2\cos u)\,\mathrm du=4\int_0^{\pi/2}\cos^2u\,\mathrm du$

Recall the half-angle identity for cosine:

$\cos^2u=\dfrac{1+\cos2u}2$

This means the integral is equivalent to

$\displaystyle2\int_0^{\pi/2}(1+\cos 2u)\,\mathrm du=2u+\sin2u\bigg|_{u=0}^{u=\pi/2}=\pi$
