Solution by detailed integration:
$x^2 + y^2 = a^2$

$y^2 = a^2 - x^2$

$y = \sqrt{a^2 - x^2}$   ←   upper-end of the strip

$y_U = \sqrt{a^2 - x^2}$
 

$\dfrac{x^2}{a^2} + \dfrac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$

$\dfrac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 - \dfrac{x^2}{a^2}$

$\dfrac{y^2}{b^2} = \dfrac{a^2 - x^2}{a^2}$

$y^2 = \dfrac{b^2}{a^2}(a^2 - x^2)$

$y = \dfrac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2 - x^2}$   ←   lower-end of the strip

$y_L = \dfrac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2 - x^2}$
 

$dA = y \, dx = (y_U - y_L) \, dx = \left( \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} - \dfrac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \right) \, dx$

$\displaystyle A = \int_0^a \left( \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} - \dfrac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \right) \, dx$

$\displaystyle A = \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \left( \dfrac{a - b}{a} \right) \, dx$

$\displaystyle A = \dfrac{a - b}{a} \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \, dx$
 

$\displaystyle A = \dfrac{a - b}{a} \int_0^{\pi/2} \sqrt{a^2 - a^2 \sin^2 \theta} \, (a \cos \theta \, d\theta)$

$\displaystyle A = (a - b) \int_0^{\pi/2} \sqrt{a^2 - a^2 \sin^2 \theta} \, (\cos \theta \, d\theta)$

$\displaystyle A = (a - b) \int_0^{\pi/2} \sqrt{a^2 \cos^2 \theta} \, (\cos \theta \, d\theta)$

$\displaystyle A = (a - b) \int_0^{\pi/2} a \cos \theta \, (\cos \theta \, d\theta)$

$\displaystyle A = a (a - b) \int_0^{\pi/2} \cos^2 \theta \, d\theta$

$\displaystyle A = a(a - b) \int_0^{\pi/2} \frac{1}{2}(1 + \cos 2\theta) \, d\theta$

$A = a(a - b) \left[ \dfrac{1}{2} \left( \theta - \dfrac{\sin 2\theta}{2} \right) \right]_0^{\pi/2}$

$A = \dfrac{a(a - b)}{2} \left[ \left( \dfrac{\pi}{2} - \dfrac{\sin \pi}{2} \right) - \left( 0 - \dfrac{\sin 0}{2} \right) \right]$

$A = \dfrac{a(a - b)}{2} \left( \dfrac{\pi}{2} \right)$

$A = \frac{1}{4}\pi a(a - b)$
