Let be the graphs of the functions respectively. Let be the graph of a function . For a point P on , let the lines through P, parallel to the axes, meet at Q & R respectively (see figure). If for every position of P (on ), the areas of the shaded regions OPQ & ORP are equal, determine the function f (x).

Solution:

Write P=(t,t²). Horizontal slices give OPQ; vertical slices give ORP. Equal areas imply:
