Help. I dont know how to figure out the bounds

OpenStudy (freckles):

It has been awhile since I have done this but I think we need to find when r is 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. Im confused how to go about it though

OpenStudy (freckles):

replace r with 0 and solve for theta

OpenStudy (freckles):

you can use unit circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is pi/6 one?

OpenStudy (freckles):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about the other?

OpenStudy (freckles):

hint quadrant 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second quadrant would be 3pi/2 but i dont think that would be right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not the most comfortable with trig functions

OpenStudy (freckles):

3pi/2 isn't in the second quadrant

OpenStudy (freckles):

3pi/2 is between the 3rd and 4th quadrant

OpenStudy (freckles):

you are looking for where the y-coordinate is 1/2

OpenStudy (freckles):

you seen this at pi/6 which was in the 1st quadrant

OpenStudy (freckles):

and you should see this at 5pi/6 which is in the 2nd quadrant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok. I was alos thinking because of pi/6 just adding pi/2 to it to get where it would be in the 4th quadrant but that would give me 4pi/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be1/2 the integral from5pi/6 to pi/6 of (1-2sin(theta))^2

OpenStudy (freckles):

pi/6+pi/2 is 4pi/6 or reducing 2pi/3 which is in the 2nd quadrant not 4th

OpenStudy (freckles):

from pi/6 to 5pi/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i was thinking about that after you said my first guess was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you :)
