. The area of the region bounded by the parabola

(y – 2)² = x – 1, the tangent to the parabola at the point (2, 3) and the x-axis is

A. 3

B. 6

C. 9

D. 12

Best Answer

Ans: C

Sol: The equation of the tangent at (2, 3)

Differentiate (y – 2)² = x – 1,

The equation of the tangent passing through(2, 3) is

x – 2y + 4 = 0

Required area

9 sq. units

Hence, option C is correct.
