QUIZ 3
Show ALL your work CAREFULLY.
(a) Sketch the region bounded by the curve y + 1 = x
2 and the line y = x + 1.
(b) Set up (without computing the actual integral) the definite integral repre-
senting the volume of the solid of revolution formed when the region in (a) is
revolved around the line y = โ1.
A typical slice (shown in the figure) when revolved around y = โ 1 is a
washer with surface area ฯ[R 2 โ r 2 ] where R is the distance from the line
y = x + 1 to the line y = โ 1 and r is the distance from the curve y = x 2 โ 1
to the line y = โ 1. Therefore, the volume of the solid of revolution is
given by
