use the integration to the find the area bounded by the two curves at the computed boundary. in matlab

To find the area bounded by two curves, you need to perform integration over the region of interest. Here is an example of how to do it in MATLAB:

main.m
% Define the two curves
f = @(x) x.^2;        % y = x^2
g = @(x) x.^3 - 2*x;  % y = x^3 - 2x

% Define the boundaries of the region of interest
a = 0;
b = 1;

% Compute the intersection point of the two curves
x_intersect = fzero(@(x) f(x) - g(x), 0.5);  % Find the root of f(x) - g(x) = 0

% Compute the area between the curves using integration
area = abs(integral(f, a, x_intersect) - integral(g, x_intersect, b));

% Display the result
fprintf('The area between the curves is: %f\n', area);

In this example, we defined two curves f and g and the boundaries a and b of the region of interest. We then used the fzero function to find the intersection point of the two curves (x_intersect). Finally, we computed the area between the curves using integration (integral function) and displayed the result.
