# Math Help - Areas in the plane (Calculus)

1. ## Areas in the plane (Calculus)

Hi. Can anyone help me with this problem?

Find the area of the regions enclosed by the lines and curves with respect to y.
1. y^2 - 4x = 4 and 4x - y = 16

Thanks.

Find the area of the regions enclosed by the line and curve with respect to y.
. . y² - 4x = 4 .and .4x - y = 16
Code:
          5+                      *
|                ....*
|            *:::::*
|      *:::::::::*
|  *:::::::::::*

--*-:+:-:-:-:-*--------------

-4+  *
|*     *
*|            *
*  |                    *

The graphs intersect at: y = -4, 5.

Solve each equation for x: . x .= .¼y² - 1, . x .= .¼y + 4

. . . . . . . . . . . . .5
The integral is: .
[(¼y + 4) - (¼y² - 1)] dy
. . . . . . . . . . . .-4

He has a template (like graph paper) in notepad where....

It's too long too explain and there's a post on here that I forget the title on and can not find which explains everything!

5. Thanks, I guess I'll try to look it up.
