What should you do after graphing the functions when finding the area between curves that intersect at more than two points?

Find the intersection points
All of the above
Identify the areas and approach
How do you calculate the area between curves that intersect at more than two points using vertical slices when the curves are functions of y?
Integrate (right function - left function) with respect to x from the y-values of the intersection points
Integrate (right function - left function) with respect to y from the y-values of the intersection points
Integrate (top function - bottom function) with respect to y from the x-values of the intersection points
Integrate (top function - bottom function) with respect to x
When evaluating where and intersect multiple times over the interval [, ], what condition must hold if we use geometric shapes to approximate area between curves?
Approximation assumes continuity but not necessarily differentiability across all segments after intersections
Summation approximation requires only positive values for either function over each subinterval defined by intersections
Integral bounds must adjust dynamically based solely on maximum values between successive intersections
Each individual shape's area should not overlap nor leave gaps between them across intervals defined by consecutive intersections
What does it mean when two curves intersect at a point?
The x-coordinate of the point is the same in both curves
The x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the point are the same in both curves
The y-coordinate of the point is the same in both curves
The x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the point are different in both curves
When computing areas bounded by multiple functions, which function should be integrated on top?
The uppermost function relative to the x-axis.
The rightmost function related to y-axis.
The linear function before any quadratic functions.
The lowermost function relative to the x-axis.
How do you calculate the area between curves that intersect at more than two points using vertical slices when the curves are given in parametric form?
Integrate (top function - bottom function) with respect to t from the x-values of the intersection points
Integrate (top function - bottom function) with respect to x
Integrate (right function - left function) with respect to x from the t-values of the intersection points
Integrate (right function - left function) with respect to t from the t-values of the intersection points
In calculating the enclosed area between curves given by equations and , which start and end intersecting at , what technique could cause an error if not applied properly?
Implementing trapezoidal rule across entire domain without considering curve behavior changes or intersection nuances between endpoints.
Failing to use separative definite integrals based on point-to-point analysis leading up to due to identical start/end points masking internal intersections.
Using a single application of integration by parts for entire region assuming is always above .
Assuming that since functions have identical endpoints there are no internal intersections thus requiring only one integral calculation.
