Mapping the Terrain

Before we can calculate the area, we must understand the shape of the region defined by the three curves:
To find the corners of this region, we calculate the intersection points. First, for and :
Plugging into , we find the first corner at .
Next, for and :
This gives us the second corner at .
Finally, for and :
Substituting , we solve . Testing values, we find is a root, so , which means . Our final corner is .

The Strategy of Splitting

With vertices at , , and , we observe that the upper boundary changes at . From to , the upper curve is , while from to , the upper curve is . The lower boundary remains throughout.
We must split the total area into two distinct integrals:

The Dance of Integration

First, we simplify the integrands. For the first interval:
For the second interval:
Now, we perform the integration for the first part:
For the second part, we integrate term by term:

Final Calculation

Evaluating the second integral at the boundaries: Upper limit (): Lower limit ():
When we combine the two areas, the terms cancel out. We are left with:
The final requested value is :
