What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

idk how to solve it

Whaat I'm sorry

#

What's that 😭

winged stirrup
# bold axle What's that 😭

You want to find the area under the curve enclosed by the two functions between an interval. If you want to find the integral over that interval, what bounds would you use?

Also, if you find the area under the curve for both individually, how can they 1. Be written together and 2. Account for the fact that you will have an overlapping area

bold axle
#

Isn't c supposed to be the ans

winged stirrup
bold axle
winged stirrup
#

I’ll give you a hint, -4 to 5 is not the correct bounds

#

We don’t want to find the ENTIRE area under the curve, because that would include space we’re not counting (namely, the area under x^2 which is NOT between the line and the x^2 curve)

#

Here’s a visual representation of your interval and the two curves

#

If we want the area enclosed by x+12 and x^2, what bounds would we use?

bold axle
#

May ik why -4 and 5 aren't the correct bounds
When I tried solving the qs someone solved it like the way I did

winged stirrup
#

Posting without the bounds to make it even more explicit

winged stirrup
#

Also, is (x+12)-x^2 equal to x^2-x-12 like you said above?

#

That should be another indication of why answer choice C is incorrect (regardless of bounds)

bold axle
#

So is it x^2-x-12 and -x^2+x+x

winged stirrup
#

It’s one or the other

#

Take away the parentheses since addition is associative, x+12+(-x^2), we also know that addition is commutative, so how can we rephrase this expression with -x^2 at the front?

winged stirrup
bold axle
#

Oh yeah

#

Is it either d or g

winged stirrup
#

So we are going to need the other equation you posted earlier, and the intuition for that is that it’s enclosed in the other direction. The line sets the bounds within the x^2 curve, but also an area outside of it

bold axle
#

It's d right

#

šŸ˜€

winged stirrup
bold axle
#

I'm on my last attempt should I try šŸ‘€

winged stirrup
#

Send it

winged stirrup
bold axle
#

Yeah

#

Let's go

#

Thank u so much

winged stirrup
#

Been years since I’ve done calc so never 100% certain if i’m right lmao

bold axle
#

Can u help me solve another qs

#

I hate calc

#

I'm a science student not math

Do you know how to find the integral without rotating first off

bold axle
#

That's a very good question

winged stirrup
#

What are the bounds here?

#

Graph so you have a visual

bold axle
#

U live in canada?

#

Why is the graph looking like that

#

I'm so so sorry but what's that 😭😭😭

winged stirrup
winged stirrup
bold axle
winged stirrup
#

What regions are enclosed and over what intervals?

bold axle
#

0 and 7

winged stirrup
#

My hint is that there are 2

#

But we’ll start on 0 and end on 7, yes

bold axle
#

Like do u mean 2pi

#

So it may be either e or g

#

We are talking abt part a right

winged stirrup
winged stirrup
#

I mean what are the enclosed regions

#

Find the bounds before you do anything else

#

It’ll knock off half of the answer choices

#

and then selecting the right equation will knock off another half from the remaining

bold axle
#

1/6

winged stirrup
# bold axle 1/6

that’ll be the y value (which we know, because y=1/6 will intersect it at y=1/6), but what would the x value be (as the x is what defines our bounds)

#

Stated in a leading way, If arctan(x)=1/6, how do we find x?

Hint: what is the inverse function of arctan?

bold axle
#

1/x^2+1

winged stirrup
bold axle
#

Isn't that supposed to be the inverse?

winged stirrup
#

What is the inverse function of arctan?

#

Arctan is the inverse of tan, and BLANK is the inverse of arctan

bold axle
#

Tan?

winged stirrup
#

Yes

bold axle
#

We don't need the deriv?

winged stirrup
#

Nope

bold axle
#

Ohh

winged stirrup
#

So if arctan(x)=1/6, x=?

#

Don’t compute the actual x, just keep it in function form (as this is what the problem does in the solutions, and the answer is a crazy decimal)

bold axle
#

0.165149

winged stirrup
bold axle
#

Tan 1/6

winged stirrup
#

So what are our bounds

bold axle
#

0, tan1/6, 7

winged stirrup
#

Yes!

#

Ok, next determine the equations that’ll give you the area of the enclosed regions (don’t worry about rotating just yet, that’ll be our last step)

bold axle
#

Arctanx^2 and 1/6^2

winged stirrup
#

Don’t worry about rotating yet

#

From 0 to tan(1/6) what do we need to do to ONLY get the area of the enclosed region?

#

Look at the graph again if need be

#

Just like the last problem we did

winged stirrup
#

Extend that to x=7 I had to crop so the first enclosed space is actually visible

#

If you’re not allowed to look at graphs, the easiest way to know which function is higher than the other at a particular bound is to just plug in an x in the bound and see which value is greater (for us x=0 to start with). For us, we know that y=1/6 is above at first because arctan(0)=0

#

and then we can check again in the next bound

bold axle
#

We won't have graphs in our test

winged stirrup
#

Yes so follow what I said

#

You can also find the overlapping points that show your separated bounds by setting the functions equal to each other (because they overlap when they’re equal in x and y value)

bold axle
#

So it's h

winged stirrup
#

Wait wait wait

bold axle
#

🄸

winged stirrup
#

It’s not, but I also said don’t rotate yet

#

What’s the equation (with integral 0 to tan(1/6)) that’ll get you the enclosed area, knowing y=1/6 is on top, and that what’s below arctanx (because it’s the lower function at that point) isn’t in the enclosed space

bold axle
#

Acrtan 1/6 will be in the middle like top in the first and below in the second

winged stirrup
#

Yes, now give the equation for the first interval (don’t write out the integral sign and stuff just give me the plain algebraic expression)

#

We want everything below y=1/6 WITHOUT what’s below arctan(x), as that’s our enclosed space. What’s the equation

bold axle
#

1/6-arctanx

winged stirrup
#

Beautiful

#

and for the second?

bold axle
#

Arctanx-1/6

winged stirrup
#

Awesome

#

Now we want to know what the integral will look like if it’s a circle

#

Because a 360 revolution is a circle

bold axle
#

We double it bcz we have a bigger and a smaller circle

winged stirrup
#

No

#

If you want to find the area of a circle, what equation do you use

bold axle
#

Pir2

winged stirrup
#

Ok

#

What’s our radius

#

Hint: You’ve already figured it out

bold axle
#

Arctan1/6

#

Or tan1/6

winged stirrup
#

No

winged stirrup
# bold axle Arctan1/6

Think hard about it. We’re not going to have a constant value as the radius, because the circle changes size across. What would represent the value of the thing being rotated around the x axis, let’s say for the first interval

#

Because when it’s rotated (remembering that the radius is HALF of the circle), and our enclosed space is the thing being rotated (and it constitutes half of the circle), what’s our radius?

bold axle
#

7

winged stirrup
#

The distance between the y values of the two points represents the radius at a particular value x=4. If we JUST use arctan(4)=y, we’ll get the distance from 4 on the x axis to the top function. But we only want the enclosed space, so what can we get rid of to make the radius ONLY the enclosed space?

bold axle
#

Ohhh okay

#

I get it

winged stirrup
#

So what’s the radius IN GENERAL (not for x=4, the generalization is just x because we want it at any real x between 0 and 7)

bold axle
#

Is the ans d? For part a

winged stirrup
#

The radius is just the expressions we found before

#

arctanx-1/6 and 1/6-arctanx

bold axle
#

How abt part b

winged stirrup
#

Because we want y to be equal to the x value of the function, leading from the fact that we’re now rotating around the y axis

#

So find a way to get x on its own in each function

bold axle
#

ok

winged stirrup
#

So it’ll be x in terms of y

bold axle
#

is it a?

winged stirrup
#

Don’t guess, do the work

bold axle
#

šŸ§ā€ā™€ļøšŸ§ā€ā™€ļø

winged stirrup
#

y=arctan(x). What is x equal to?
x=0. Already know what x equals
x=7. Already know what x equals
y=1/6. Already know what y equals

bold axle
#

Tan(1/6
