As we have learnt,

 

Introduction of area under the curve -

The area between the curve y= f(x),x axis and two ordinates at the point  x=a\, and \,x= b\left ( b>a \right ) is given by

A= \int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx=\int_{a}^{b}ydx

- wherein

 

 

Area = 6\int_{0}^{\pi}\sin x dx = 6 \times \left [-\cos x \right ]^{\pi}_{0} = 6 \times 2 = 12 sq\; units

 


Option 1)

3 sq units

Option 2)

6 sq units

Option 3)

12 sq units

Option 4)

9 sq units
