Question

How do you find the area of a shaded region for a parabola?

Answer 1

defined integrals

Answer 2

more elaborate please

Answer 3

It also depends on the parabola. Using an integral that starts at the left intercept and ends at the right intercept (assuming the graph is around the x-axis) will usually suffice. Otherwise, you can estimate it using Riemann sums.

Answer 4

However, integrals are the only way to get an exact answer.
