3 Fig. 4 shows the curve \(y = \sqrt { 1 + \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 x } }\), and the region between the curve, the \(x\)-axis, the \(y\)-axis and the line \(x = 2\). \begin{figure}[h]

  1. Find the exact volume of revolution when the shaded region is rotated through \(360 ^ { \circ }\) about the \(x\)-axis.
    1. Complete the table of values, and use the trapezium rule with 4 strips to estimate the area of the shaded region.
      \(x\)00.511.52
      \(y\)1.92832.89644.5919
    2. The trapezium rule for \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { 2 } \sqrt { 1 + \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 x } } \mathrm {~d} x\) with 8 and 16 strips gives 6.797 and 6.823, although not necessarily in that order. Without doing the calculations, say which result is which, explaining your reasoning.
