\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{7cdf4db7-7217-4ef1-becf-359a70cfeb62-16_556_698_274_712} The diagram shows the curve \(y = \sin x \cos 2 x\) for \(0 \leqslant x \leqslant \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi\), and its maximum point \(M\).
  1. Find the \(x\)-coordinate of \(M\), giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
  2. Using the substitution \(u = \cos x\), find the area of the shaded region enclosed by the curve and the \(x\)-axis in the first quadrant, giving your answer in a simplified exact form.
    If you use the following lined page to complete the answer(s) to any question(s), the question number(s) must be clearly shown.
