& =[\sin x+\cos x]_0^{\pi / 4}=\sin \frac{\pi}{4}+\cos \frac{\pi}{4}-(\sin (0)+\cos (0)) \\
& =\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)-(0+1)=\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}-1\right)=(\sqrt{2}-1) \text { sq. units. }
\end{aligned}
$

(c) $\pi a(a-b)$
(d) $2 \pi \mathrm{b}(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{b})$
Solution:
(c) $\pi a(a-b)$
Hint:
Area of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1=\pi a b$
Area of the auxillary line $x^2+y^2=a^2=\pi a^2$
$\therefore$ Area between them $=\pi a^2-\pi a b=\pi a(a-b)$ sq. units.

Solution:
(b) $\frac{1}{6}$
Hint:
$
\begin{aligned}
y^2=x \Rightarrow 4 a=1 \Rightarrow a & =\frac{1}{4} \\
\text { Required area } & =2 \int_0^{\frac{1}{4}} y d x \quad\left[\because y^2=x \Rightarrow y=\sqrt{x}\right] \\
& =2 \int_0^{\frac{1}{4}} \sqrt{x} d x=2\left[\frac{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}\right]_0^{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{4}{3}\left[x^{\frac{3}{2}}\right]_0^{\frac{1}{4}} \\
& =\frac{4}{3}\left[\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}-0^{\frac{3}{2}}\right]=\frac{4}{3}\left[\frac{1}{2^3}\right]=\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{6} \text { sq.units. }
\end{aligned}
$

Hint:
The volume of the solid obtained by revolving $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ about the minor axis is $\frac{4 \pi}{3} a^2 b$ cubic units.
Given equation of the given ellipse is $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$
Here $a^2=16, a=4, b^2=9, b=3$

& \qquad \begin{aligned}
y & =\sqrt{3+x^2} \Rightarrow y^2=3+x^2 \\
\text { Required volume } \mathrm{V} & =\pi \int_0^4\left(3+x^2\right) d x \\
& =\pi\left[3 x+\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^4=\pi\left[12+\frac{64}{3}\right]=\frac{100 \pi}{3} \text { cu. units. }

$
\begin{aligned}
& =x^{2 / 3}+y^{2 / 3}=a^{2 / 3} \\
\text { Given, } a^{2 / 3} & =4 \Rightarrow a^2=64 \Rightarrow a=8 \\
\therefore \text { Required length } & =6 a=6 \times 8=48 \text { units. } \\

& \text { Given, } y=2 x \\
& \frac{d y}{d x}=2 \Rightarrow\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2=4 \\
& \sqrt{1+\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2}=\sqrt{1+4}=\sqrt{5} \\
& \therefore \text { Required surface area } \\
& \int_0^2 2 \pi 2 x \sqrt{5}=4 \pi \sqrt{5} \int_0^2 x d x \\
&=4 \pi \sqrt{5}\left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^2=8 \sqrt{5} \pi .
