Important Topics in Class 12 Mathematics Chapter 8 Applications of Integrals

Importabt concepts of Class 12 Maths covered in Chapter 8 Application Of Integrals of NCERT Solutions are:

Introduction to Applications of Integrals

The introduction section of this topic includes recollection of the idea of finding areas bounded by the curve. Definite integral as the limit of a sum, introduces different applications of integrals like the area under simple curves, between lines, parabolas and ellipses.

Average value of a function can be calculated using integration.

Example: Derivative of f(x) = x³ is f’(x) = 3x2; and the antiderivative of g(x) = 3x2 is f(x) = x³. Here, the integral of g(x) = 3x2 is f(x)=x³

Area Under Simple Curves

This section defines the area bounded by a curve. Area Under a Simple Curve is expressed using formula: y = f(x).

Area Between Two Curves

Area Between Two Curves section covers the method of finding the area between two curves with solved problems. Area can be found by dividing a certain region into a number of pieces of small area and then adding up the area of those tiny pieces. It is easier to find the area if the tiny pieces are vertical in shape.

Important Concepts of Area Between Two Curves:

Area of the region bounded by the curve y = f (x), x-axis and the lines x = a and x = b (b > a) is given by the formula: Area = $\oint_a^b y dx=\oint_b^a f(x) dx$
Area of the region enclosed between two curves y = f (x), y = g (x) and the lines x = a, x = b is given by the formula, Area = $\oint_a^b$; where f(x) ≥ g(x) in [a, b]
If f (x) ≥ g (x) in [a, c] and f (x) ≤ g (x) in [c, b], a < c < b, then Area = $\oint_a^c + \oint_c^b$

Find the cost (per kg) of each fertilizer A, B and C that a farmer needs to buy, such that 1 kg each of fertilizer A and C added to 2 kg of B costs him ₹ 400. Also, the cost of each kg of fertilizer B and C added together is equal to the cost of 1 kg of fertilizer A. However, the cost of 3 kg of fertilizer B added to ₹ 200 is the same as the cost of 1 kg of fertilizer A and C together. Use the matrix method to find the solution.
