As we learnt

Area along x axis -

Let y_{1}= f_{1}(x)\, and \, y_{2}= f_{2}(x) be two curve then area bounded between the curves and the lines

x = a and x = b is

\left | \int_{a}^{b} \Delta y\, dx\right |= \left | \int_{a}^{b}\left ( y_{2}-y_{1} \right ) dx\right |

 

- wherein

Where \Delta y= f_{2}\left ( x \right )-f_{1}(x)

 

 2 

Area\; Required=1-\int_{0}^{1}ydx=1-\int_{0}^{1}x^{2}dx=\frac{2}{3}
