Area by Parts and Rotational Volume
Practice
5.1 Given:
a) Find the coordinates of the intersection points using your TI.
![]()
b) Set up the integrals to find the area enclosed by y1 and y2
![]()
c) Evaluate the integrals in part b) using the TI.
Solve on the calculator to get 32.75
5.2 Let R be the region bounded by ![]()
a) Find the area of R
![]()
b) Find the volume of R when it is spun about the x-axis
Solve using disk about the x axis:
![]()
c) Set up a shell integral for the volume when R is revolved about the y axis. (do not evaluate)
Solve using shell about the y axis:
![]()
5.3 Let the region R denote the area bounded by
, and the x axis.
a) Find the volume when R is rotated around the y-axis.
Solve using shell about the y axis:
![]()
b) Why is the disk method not possible around the y-axis?
Because we can’t solve for x. (we are unable to put
in terms of x)
5.4 Let R denote the region bounded by
a) Find the area of R
![]()
b) Revolve R about the x-axis. Solve for volume.
Solve using washer method about the x-axis.
![]()
5.5 Let R denote the region bounded by
. Set up the integral for R being revolved about the line x = 3. Do not solve.
Solve using shell method about a line:
![]()
5.6 Let R equal the region bounded by
. Set up the integral for R being revolved about the x-axis by shell method. No not solve.
Find points of intersection
, (2)²
.
Solve using shell about the x-axis.
You will need to find the volume of y2 from y = 0 to y = 4 and then the volume of y1 from y = 4 to y = 12.
The area would be denoted by:
Multiplied by 2 because R is symmetric across the y axis
