Correct answer
Dπ-83

Step-by-step explanation

y22x  (Area outside the parabola)

x2+y24x (Area inside the circle)


Finding point of intersection of the curves, we get, 

x2+y2=4x and y2=2x

x2+2x=4x

x2=2x

x=0, x=2

If x=0,then y=0 and if x=2, then y=±2.

Coordinates of A0, 0, B2, 2

As x 0 ,y 0 only area above x-axis would be considered.

Hence, area

=024x-x2 dx- 2 02x dx 

=024-x-22 dx- 2 02x dx

=x-22 4x-x2+42 .sin-1x-22- 2 x323202

=0-2sin-1-1- 2 .2322=π-83  sq.units
