The region \(R\) is bounded by the curve, the axes and the line \(x = \pi\).
  1. Use the trapezium rule with two intervals to find an approximation to the area of \(R\), giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
  2. The region \(R\) is rotated completely about the \(x\)-axis. Without using a calculator, find the exact volume of the solid produced.
