8 Fig. 8 shows a sketch of part of the curve \(y = x \sin 2 x\), where \(x\) is in radians.
The curve crosses the \(x\)-axis at the point P . The tangent to the curve at P crosses the \(y\)-axis at Q . \begin{figure}[h]

  1. Find \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x }\). Hence show that the \(x\)-coordinates of the turning points of the curve satisfy the equation \(\tan 2 x + 2 x = 0\).
  2. Find, in terms of \(\pi\), the \(x\)-coordinate of the point P . Show that the tangent PQ has equation \(2 \pi x + 2 y = \pi ^ { 2 }\).
    Find the exact coordinates of Q .
  3. Show that the exact value of the area shaded in Fig. 8 is \(\frac { 1 } { 8 } \pi \left( \pi ^ { 2 } - 2 \right)\).
