    \end{figure} Shape \(B\) is cut from metal of thickness 2 mm
    The metal has a density of \(10.5 \mathrm {~g} / \mathrm { cm } ^ { 3 }\)
    Use the trapezium rule with six ordinates to calculate an approximate value of the mass of Shape B. Give your answer to the nearest gram.
    11
  3. Without further calculation, give one reason why the mass found in part (b) may be:
    11
    1. an underestimate.
      11
  4. (ii) an overestimate.
