Solution

The correct option is B $2 - \frac{π}{2}$
$y = 1 - \frac{2 x}{π}$ , $y = cos x$
$A = (0, 1)$ , $B = (\frac{π}{2})$
Area of shaded region above X-axis
$= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos x d x - \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{π}{2} \times 1$
$= [sin x]_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} - \frac{π}{4}$
$= 1 - \frac{π}{4}$
Due to symmetry
Total area $= 2 - \frac{π}{2}$
