| Topic | Integration by Parts |
| Type | Area under curve requiring parts |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a straightforward integration by parts question with standard setup (xe^{2x}), followed by routine trapezium rule application. Part (a) requires one application of integration by parts with clear choice of u and dv, part (b) is calculator work, and part (c) is direct formula application. Slightly easier than average due to the predictable structure and minimal problem-solving required. |

Figure 1 shows the graph of the curve with equation
$$y = x \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 x } , \quad x \geqslant 0$$
The finite region $R$ bounded by the lines $x = 1$, the $x$-axis and the curve is shown shaded in Figure 1.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Use integration to find the exact value for the area of $R$.
\item Complete the table with the values of $y$ corresponding to $x = 0.4$ and 0.8 .
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{ | l | l | l | l | l | l | l | }
\hline
$x$ & 0 & 0.2 & 0.4 & 0.6 & 0.8 & 1 \\
\hline
$y = x \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 x }$ & 0 & 0.29836 & & 1.99207 & & 7.38906 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\item Use the trapezium rule with all the values in the table to find an approximate value for this area, giving your answer to 4 significant figures.
