\end{figure} Figure 1 shows part of the curve \(y = \frac { 3 } { \sqrt { } ( 1 + 4 x ) }\). The region \(R\) is bounded by the curve, the \(x\)-axis, and the lines \(x = 0\) and \(x = 2\), as shown shaded in Figure 1.
  1. Use integration to find the area of \(R\). The region \(R\) is rotated \(360 ^ { \circ }\) about the \(x\)-axis.
  2. Use integration to find the exact value of the volume of the solid formed.
