(a) Point of Intersection: Use the
[Intersection] function of the calculator
and obtain (0.517757, 0.868931).
Area =
∫ 0. 51775
0
(cosx−xex)dx
Enter
∫
(cos(x)−x∗e∧x, x,
0, 0. 51775 )and obtain 0.304261.
The area of the region is approximately
0.304.
(b) Step 1: Using the Washer Method:
Outer radius=cosx;
Inner radius=xex.
V=π
∫ 0. 51775
0
[
(cosx)^2 −(xex)^2
]
dx
Step 2: Enter π
∫ ((
cos(x)
)∧
2 −
(
x∗e∧(x)
)∧
2, x,0,0. 51775
)
and obtain 1.16678.
Thus, the volume of the solid
is approximately 1.167.
