Challenging +1.2 This question requires finding the area between two curves by integration, using the double angle formula to integrate sin²x, and careful algebraic manipulation. While it involves multiple steps (setting up the integral, applying the identity sin²x = (1-cos2x)/2, integrating √(2π-2x) by substitution, and simplifying to an exact answer), these are all standard A-level techniques. The main challenge is executing the calculation accurately rather than any novel problem-solving insight.

The diagram shows the curves \(y = \sqrt { 2 \pi - 2 x }\) and \(y = \sin ^ { 2 } x\) for \(0 \leqslant x \leqslant \pi\). The shaded region is bounded by the two curves and the line \(x = 0\).
Find the exact area of the shaded region.
