$y^{2}=4 \lambda x$ and $y=\lambda x$
$y^{2}=4 \lambda x$ and $y=\lambda x$
$\lambda^{2} x^{2}=4 \lambda x$
$x=0$ and $x=\frac{4}{\lambda}$
Area $ = \int\limits_0^{4\lambda } {(\sqrt {4\lambda x} - \lambda x)} dx = \frac{1}{9}$
$ \Rightarrow 2\sqrt \lambda \times \left( {\frac{{{x^{3/2}}}}{{3/2}}} \right)_0^{4/\lambda } - \lambda \left( {\frac{{{x^2}}}{2}} \right)_0^{4/\lambda } = \frac{1}{9}$
$\frac{4}{3} \sqrt{\lambda} \times\left(2^{2}\right)^{3 / 4} \frac{x}{\lambda^{3 / 2}}-\frac{x}{2} \times \frac{16}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{9}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{32}{3 \lambda}-\frac{8}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{9}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{8}{3 \lambda}=\frac{1}{9}$
$\lambda=24$
