Explanation Given information: Horizontal line y = c is intersecting the curve y = 8 x − 27 x 3 . Show the intersection of curve and the horizontal line as shown in Figure 1. Calculation: Show the equation of line as follows: y = c (1) Show the equation of the curve as follows: y = 8 x − 27 x 3 (2) Equating Equation (1) and Equation (2). c = 8 x − 27 x 3 (3) Refer to Figure 1. The region R 1 lies between x = 0 and x = a and the region R 2 lies between x = a and x = b . Consider the areas of the shaded regions are equal. R 1 = R 2 (4) Here, R 1 is the area of the shaded region within the limits x = 0 and x = a and R 2 is the area of the shaded region within the limits x = a and x = b . Modify Equation (4). ∫ 0 a ( c − ( 8 x − 27 x 3 ) ) d x = ∫ a b ( ( 8 x − 27 x 3 ) − c ) d x ( c x − 8 x 2 2 + 27 x 4 4 ) 0 a = ( 8 x 2 2 − 27 x 4 4 − c x ) a b (5) Substitute 8 x − 27 x 3 for c in Equation (5)

Family of Curves

A family of curves is a group of curves that are each described by a parametrization in which one or more variables are parameters. In general, the parameters have more complexity on the assembly of the curve than an ordinary linear transformation. These…

XZ Plane

In order to understand XZ plane, it's helpful to understand two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. To plot a point on a plane, two numbers are needed, and these two numbers in the plane can be represented as an ordered pair (a,b) where a and b are…

Euclidean Geometry
