The diagram shows the curve y =sqrt(3x + 1) and the points P (0, 1) and Q(1, 2) on the curve. The shaded region is bounded by the curve, the y-axis and the line y = 2. (i) Find the volume obtained when the shaded region is rotated through 360degress about the x-axis. Tangents are drawn to the curve at the points P and Q. (ii) Find the acute angle, in degrees correct to 1 decimal place, between the two tangents.

As for i) V= 5/2pi
it will be integration in 3d space
I supposed I've got to minus something else to find the shaded region.
@gorv Yes, I know it's an integration solving ques.
do you know how do do a disc method?
find the volume of the 'outside' shape, then subtract from the the volume of the 'inside' shape
i) \[ \int_{0}^1\pi (2^2 - y^2)dx = \int_{0}^1\pi (4 - 3x-1)dx = \pi\int_{0}^1 (3 - 3x)dx = 3\pi \int_{0}^1 (1 - x)dx = ? \]
The 2^2 part. Where did you get it from?
