Consider the curve given by y=4x−x2 ( y≥0 )y = \sqrt{4x - x^{2}}\,(\,y \ge 0\,). This curve meets the xx-axis at x=0x = 0 and x=4x = 4. a. (i) Write an integral expression for the area enclosed between the curve and the xx-axis from x=0x = 0 to x=4x = 4. b. (ii) By performing a suitable change of variable, evaluate the integral obtained in part (i). c. (iii) Hence state the exact value of the required area.
