Discussion

Explanation:

We need to find area bounded by |x + y| = 1, |x| = 1, and |y| = 1

i.e. all points P(x, y) in the plane such that −1≤ x + y ≤ 1, −1≤ x ≤ 1, and −1≤ y ≤ 1

−1≤ x + y will be the origin side of line x + y = −1

x + y ≤ 1 will be the origin side of line x + y = 1

−1≤ x ≤ 1 will be the area between the lines x = −1 and x = 1.

−1≤ y ≤ 1 will be the area between the lines y = −1 and y = 1.

Tracing these curves, we get the area shown in the graph below

∴ Shaded Area = Area of 3 squares of side 1 unit = 3 × (1)2 = 3

Hence, option (b).
