MCQ
The area bounded by the curve $y = \log x$ between the $x$-axis and ordinate $x = e$ is
  • A
    $e$
  • $1$
  • C
    $\infty $
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$1$
b
(b) We have, $y = \log x$.....$(i)$
and ordinate $x = e$
Now substitute $y = 0$ in equation $(i),$ we get $0 = \log x$ or $x = 1$.
$\therefore$  Area bounded by the curve between $x = 1$ and $x = e$ is, $A = \int_{{x_1}}^{{x_2}} {ydx} = \int_1^e {\log x\,dx} $
$A = [x\log x]_1^e - \int_1^e {\frac{1}{x}.x\,dx = e - e + 1 = 1} $.
