\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{b00cefad-7c3c-4672-b309-f19aafab8b01-18_324_677_259_734} The diagram shows the curve \(y = \sin x \cos ^ { 2 } 2 x\) for \(0 \leqslant x \leqslant \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi\) and its maximum point \(M\).
  1. Using the substitution \(u = \cos x\), find by integration the exact area of the shaded region bounded by the curve and the \(x\)-axis.
  2. Find the \(x\)-coordinate of \(M\). Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places.
