Find the intersection point between and


So then the area would be,

Expand the terms, integrate, and simplify to get the final answer.

.

Same procedure.
Find the two intersection points and by solving,

Proceed as above integrating from one intersection point to the other.

.
.
.

I'm not sure if the first function is or
If it's , then the integration is straightforward since

Integrating that over to would give you
If it's , then find the intersection point again where,

Then you have to modify the area because at this point the functions cross.
