  1. Answer:We have to find area of the region bounded by curves y=x

    2

    +1 and y=2x−2 between x=−1andx=2

    To find points of intersections, if any, for the parabola and the straight line we solve both simultaneously.

    x

    +1=2x−2

    ⇒x

    2

    −2x+3=0, which has no real solutions. Hence, no points of intersection for the parabola and the straight line.

    From the figure, the graph of y=x

    2

    +1 will be always above the graph of y=2x−2.

    Hence the required area is

    −1

    [(x

    +1)−(2x−2)]dx
