AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around finding the bounded region defined by the curves x=0, y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2, and x=2. Participants express confusion over why the bounded areas change when x=2 is included, as the initial conditions seem to define similar regions. Clarification is sought on the specific areas being referenced, with suggestions to visualize the problem through sketches. It is noted that the inclusion of x=2 alters the bounded region, but the necessity of this condition is questioned. The conversation emphasizes the importance of clearly defining the boundaries to accurately determine the area.

i m thinking of this...
area bounded by x=0, y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2 and x=2

why the region bounded by the below three cases are the same
1. x=0, y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2
2. y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2
3. and x=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2

but after i add x=2 and compute the bounded region, it's different?

i am just feeling so hard of finding the bounded region of the above curves

It is unclear which area you mean. The initial 5 conditions can be used to define up to 5 different areas, and all three cases below are ambiguous as well.

Did you draw a sketch?
 
For the initial description,
x=0, y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2 and x=2
and the conditions you are given,
1. x=0, y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2
2. y=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2
3. and x=0, y=x^2, y=4-x^2
Note, that in "1" the three conditions given are exactly the same as in the initial description. You have to explain why "x= 2" is not necessary.
For "2" the same is true except that it is "x= 0" that is missing and for "3" it is y= 0.
