Question

(i)
Find the exact value of
12π1712πsin2x  dx.\int_{\frac{1}{2} \pi}^{\frac{17}{12} \pi} \sin^2 x \; \mathrm{d}x.
Hence find the exact value of
12π1712πcos2x  dx.\int_{\frac{1}{2} \pi}^{\frac{17}{12} \pi} \cos^2 x \; \mathrm{d}x.

(ii)
The region R{R} is bounded by the curve
y=x2ex,y=x^2 \mathrm{e}^x ,
the line x=1{x=1} and part of the x-axis{x\textrm{-axis}} between 0{0} and 1.{1.} Find
(iia)
the exact area of R,{R,}
[5]
(iib)
the numerical value of the volume of revolution when R{R} is rotated completely about the x-axis,{x\textrm{-axis},} giving your answer correct to 3 decimal places.
