To find the area of the shaded region, we need to integrate the function with respect to the appropriate variable and limits. The region is bounded by the curve \(y = x^2\), the y-axis, and the lines \(x = 0\) and \(x = 2\).
Since the region is defined with respect to the y-axis, we need to express x in terms of y. From \(y = x^2\), we have \(x = \sqrt{y}\). The limits of integration for y will be from \(y = 0\) (when \(x = 0\)) to \(y = 4\) (when \(x = 2\)).
Therefore, the area of the shaded region is given by the integral:
\[
\int_{0}^{4} \sqrt{y} \, dy
\]
Bloom's Analysis:
This is an APPLY question because it requires the student to apply the concept of definite integrals to calculate the area under a curve. The student needs to identify the correct limits of integration and the correct function to integrate.
Knowledge Dimension:PROCEDURAL
Justification:The question requires the student to apply a specific procedure (integration) to solve the problem. It involves knowing how to set up the integral for the area under a curve and how to evaluate it.<\/span>
Syllabus Audit:
In the context of CBSE Class 12, this is classified as KNOWLEDGE. The question directly tests the student's understanding and application of a standard textbook method for finding the area under a curve using integration.
