The region under the line y=xy=x from x=0x=0 to x=2x=2 is found by the definite integral ∫02x dx\int_0^2 x\,dx.

Step 1. The line y=xy=x, the vertical line x=2x=2, and the xx-axis bound a right triangle with vertices (0,0),(2,0),(2,2)(0,0),(2,0),(2,2).

Step 2. By calculus, Area =∫02y dx=∫02x dx=[x22]02=42−0=2=\displaystyle\int_0^2 y\,dx = \int_0^2 x\,dx = \left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^2 = \frac{4}{2}-0 = 2.
