| Topic | Volumes of Revolution |
| Type | Volume with trigonometric functions |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a straightforward application of standard integration techniques with hyperbolic functions. Part (a) requires integration by parts with sinh x (a routine technique), part (b) is a volumes of revolution formula with cosh²2x (using the standard identity cosh²u = (1+cosh 2u)/2), and part (c) exploits symmetry. While hyperbolic functions are Further Maths content, these are textbook exercises requiring no problem-solving insight—just methodical application of learned techniques. |

\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Find the area of the region enclosed by the curve $y = x\sinh x$, the $x$-axis and the lines $x = 0$ and $x = 1$. [4]
\item The region $R$ is bounded by the curve $y = \cosh 2x$, the $x$-axis and the lines $x = 0$ and $x = 1$. Find the volume of the solid generated when $R$ is rotated through four right-angles about the $x$-axis. [4]
\item Using your answer to part (b), find the total volume of the solid generated by rotating the region bounded by the curve $y = \cosh 2x$ and the lines $x = -1$ and $x = 1$. [1]
