Now to find the point of intersection of (1) and (2), substitute y2 = 1-x2 in (2)
(x-1)2 + (1-x2) = 1
x2 + 1 – 2x +1-x2 = 1

y2 + 6y - 16= 0
y = 2 (or) y = -8
as x cannot be imaginary, y = 2
Substituting x in (2), we get x = ± 2√3
So the two points, A and B where (1) and (2) meet are A = (2√3,2) and B = (-2√3,2)

Now to find the point of intersection of (1) and (2), substitute y2 = 8x in (1)
x2 + 8x = 25
x2 + 8x - 25= 0
as y cannot be imaginary, we reject the negative value of x
so
So the two points, A and B are the points where (1) and (2) meet.
The line AB meets the x-axis at D = [(√41 -4),0]
Substitute y = 0 in (1),

Area under AB = 20 sq. units. ---- (1)
Consider the line BC, y = 3x+1
Consider the area under BC:
From the above figure, the area under the line BC will be given by,
[ using the formula, and ]
= 24+4-0= 28
Area under BC = 28 sq. units. ---- (2)
If we area under AB is removed from BC from the graph, we can obtain the area required.
Now, the combined area under the rABC is given by
Area under rABC =Area under BC - Area under AB
From (1), (2), we get
Area under rABC = 28 – 20 = 8
Therefore, area under rABC = 8 sq.units.
