  1. In this question you must show detailed reasoning.
Evaluate \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { \frac { 1 } { 2 } } \frac { 2 } { x ^ { 2 } - x + 1 } \mathrm {~d} x\). Give your answer in exact form.

  1. Determine the area of R . Give your answer in the form \(p + \ln q\) where \(p\) and \(q\) are integers to be determined. The region R is rotated through \(2 \pi\) radians about the \(x\)-axis.
  2. Determine the volume of the solid of revolution formed. Give your answer in the form \(\pi \left( a + b \ln \left( \frac { c } { d } \right) \right)\) where \(a , b , c\) and \(d\) are integers to be determined.
