Given curves are ,
let
and
In order to find the Centroid of the region bounded by the curves ,
first we have to find the area bounded by the curves ,so ,
now in order to find the area , we have to find the intersecting points of the curves. This can be obtained by equating f(x) and g(x) .
=>
=>
=>
=>
=> ---------(1)
so the curves
so the area where the lower bound is -a, and the upper bound is a
The function which is being integrated is an even function so,
=
=
let ------(2)
so ,
but from (1) and (2) we get
is
=>
so
so ,now with the new integrals we get
area
=
=
=
=
=
=
we can right the above integral as
=
as we know that
now ,
area =
=
=
=
=
=
=
Now the centroid of the region bounded the curves is given as ,
let be the co- ordinates of the centroid so ,
is given as
where the limits
so,
=
=
let
The bounds are then and
so,
since for
it follows that
so,
and now let us and so ,
is given as
where the
so ,
=
=
=
=
=
since the function which is being integrated is even function so ,we can write the above equation as
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
so the centroid of the area bounded by the curves is
=
