✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}\) square units
  1. This is the first-quadrant quarter disk of radius a. A vertical strip has height √(a²−x²). The strip widths are \(\sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}}\) for x∈\(\left[0, a\right]\).
  2. Primitive \(\frac{a^{2} \operatorname{asin}{\left(\frac{x}{a} \right)}}{2} + \frac{x \sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}}}{2}\), endpoint difference \(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}\).
  3. Therefore the area is \(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}\) square units.

  • [0.5 marks] This is the first-quadrant quarter disk of radius a. A vertical strip has height √(a²−x²). The strip widths are \(\sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}}\) for x∈\(\left[0, a\right]\).
  • [1 mark] Primitive \(\frac{a^{2} \operatorname{asin}{\left(\frac{x}{a} \right)}}{2} + \frac{x \sqrt{a^{2} - x^{2}}}{2}\), endpoint difference \(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}\).
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore the area is \(\frac{\pi a^{2}}{4}\) square units.
