The curve is
.
Graph the curve
.
Shade the required region.
\
Observe the graph :
\Region enclosed by the given curves is between
and
.
Area enclosed by the curves
and
between
and
is
.
The curve is
.

Top half of the curve is
.
Observe the graph:
\Curve is symmetrical about
axis,
Hence the area enclosed by the loop is twice the area of top half of the curve .
\
.
Assume

Upper limt: If
then
.
Substitute
and change of limits in
