The point of intersection of the line and the circle in the first quadrant is (√3, 1) . 
Area OAB = Area ΔOCA + Area ACB 
Area of OAC = (1/2) × OC × AC = (1/2) × √3 × 1 = √3/2  ...(1)

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-12-Mathematics-Chapter-8-Application-of-Integrals-8

Exercise 8.2

Question. Find the area of the circle 4x2 + 4y2 = 9 which is interior to the parabola x2 = 4y 
Answer : 
The required area is represented by the shaded area OBCDO. 

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-12-Mathematics-Chapter-8-Application-of-Integrals-20

Solving the given equation of circle, 4x2 + 4y2 = 9, and parabola, x2 = 4y , we obtain the point of intersection as B(√2, 1/2) and D(-√2, 1/2). 
It can be observed that the required area is symmetrical about y - axis. 
Area OBCDO = 2 × Area OBCO 
We draw BM perpendicular to OA. 
Therefore, the coordinates of M are (√2, 0). 
Therefore, Area OBCO = Area OMBCO - Area OMBO 

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-12-Mathematics-Chapter-8-Application-of-Integrals-21

Question. Find the area bounded by curves (x – 1)2 + y2 = 1 and x2 + y 2 = 1

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-12-Mathematics-Chapter-8-Application-of-Integrals-22

On solving the equations, (x - 1)2 + y2 = 1 and x2 + y2 = 1, we obtain the point of intersections as A (1/2, √3/2) and B(1/2, √3/2)
It can be observed that the required area is symmetrical about x - axis. 
∴ Area OBCAO = 2 × Area OCAO 
We join AB, which intersects OC at M, such that AM is perpendicular to OC. 
The coordinates of M are (1/2, 0)
⇒ Area OCAO = Area OMAO + Area MCAM
