6. (a) Obtain the area of the region enclosed by y = ln x, the line x = e and the x axis.
(Ans: 1)
(b) Determine the volume of the solid generated when the region in part (a) is revolved
about the x axis. (Ans: π(e − 2))
7. The region bounded by y = sin x (x ∈ [0, π/2]) and the x axis is revolved about the y
axis. Calculate the volume of the resulting solid using cross sections (a) parallel to the
y axis (i.e. cylindrical shell method), and (b) perpendicular to the y axis (i.e. washer
method). (Ans: 2π)
