About this worksheet

Area between a curve and an axis, and between two curves. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can find where two curves cross and which is on top.
  • I can find the area between a curve and the x-axis, and between two curves.
  • I can split a region at every crossing, and work back to a constant from an area.

Standard: none (beyond CCSS)

Words to know

top − bottom: The height of a vertical strip.

crossing: An x where the two curves meet; the region's ends.

total area: Every piece counted positive.

Common mistakes

Found the area on one side of the axis of symmetry only.

Subtracted top from bottom, giving a negative number. Area is ∫ (top − bottom).

Gave the area under the top curve, down to the axis, without subtracting the bottom curve.

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with area between a curve and an axis, and between two curves?

Found the area on one side of the axis of symmetry only.
