| Topic | Standard Integrals and Reverse Chain Rule |
| Type | Area under curve using integration |
| Difficulty | Moderate -0.8 This is a straightforward integration question testing standard techniques. Part (a) requires direct integration of sin 2x and cos x with simple substitution of limits. Part (b) involves integrating 1/(x+1) to get ln(x+1) and solving ln(p+1) - ln(2) = 2, which is routine manipulation. All techniques are standard textbook exercises with no problem-solving insight required, making it easier than average but not trivial due to the multi-part nature and algebraic manipulation needed. |

The diagram shows part of the curve $y = \frac { 1 } { x + 1 }$. The shaded region $R$ is bounded by the curve and by the lines $x = 1 , y = 0$ and $x = p$.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item Find, in terms of $p$, the area of $R$.
\item Hence find, correct to 1 decimal place, the value of $p$ for which the area of $R$ is equal to 2 .
