7. (a) Sketch the graph of \(y = \sin \left( x + \frac { \pi } { 6 } \right) , \quad 0 \leqslant x \leqslant 2 \pi\) Show the coordinates of the points where the graph crosses the \(x\)-axis. The table below gives corresponding values of \(x\) and \(y\) for \(y = \sin \left( x + \frac { \pi } { 6 } \right)\).
The values of \(y\) are rounded to 3 decimal places where necessary.
\(x\)0\(\frac { \pi } { 8 }\)\(\frac { \pi } { 4 }\)\(\frac { 3 \pi } { 8 }\)\(\frac { \pi } { 2 }\)
\(y\)0.50.7930.9660.9910.866
(b) Use the trapezium rule with all the values of \(y\) from the table to find an approximate value for $$\int _ { 0 } ^ { \frac { \pi } { 2 } } \sin \left( x + \frac { \pi } { 6 } \right) \mathrm { d } x$$ Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
