i that the region im flipping over the x-axis?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

that's what it says I would recommend disk method

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that one squared?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

|dw:1337271146570:dw|yes, the area of each disk is given by the formula\[A=\pi r^2\] and we need to find r in this case....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldnt it be pi/4?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

|dw:1337271219305:dw|not the area of any circle is\[A=\pi r^2\]the limits of your integral will be 0 and \(\large \frac\pi4\)
