Question #a888b Calculus Applications of Definite Integrals Determining the Surface Area of a Solid of Revolution 1 Answer Narad T. Oct 22, 2017 The answer is #=2# Explanation: We need #intcosxdx=sinx+C# #intsin2xdx=-1/2cos2x+C# Therefore, #int_0 ^(pi/2)(cosx+sin2x)=[sinx-1/2cos2x]_0^(pi/2)# #=(sin(pi/2)-1/2cospi)-(sin0-1/2cos0)# #=1+1/2-0+1/2# #=2# Answer link Related questions How do you find the surface area of a solid of revolution?
