| Topic | Numerical integration |
| Type | Apply trapezium rule to given table |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a standard multi-part integration question combining numerical methods (trapezium rule) with substitution and integration by parts. Part (a) is routine arithmetic, part (b) is a guided substitution with clear instructions, and part (c) requires integration by parts of u^(1/2)ln(2u) which is a standard technique. The question provides significant scaffolding and uses familiar C3/C4 techniques without requiring novel insight. |

Figure 4 shows a sketch of the curve with equation $y = 12 x ^ { 2 } \ln \left( 2 x ^ { 2 } \right) , x > 0$
The finite region $R$, shown shaded in Figure 4, is bounded by the curve, the line with equation $x = 1$, the $x$-axis and the line with equation $x = 2$
The table below shows corresponding values of $x$ and $y$ for $y = 12 x ^ { 2 } \ln \left( 2 x ^ { 2 } \right)$, with the values of $y$ given to 3 significant figures.
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{ | c | c | c | c | c | c | }
\hline
$x$ & 1 & 1.25 & 1.5 & 1.75 & 2 \\
\hline
$y$ & 8.32 & 21.4 & 40.6 & 66.6 & 99.8 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Use the trapezium rule, with all the values of $y$, to obtain an estimate for the area of $R$, giving your answer to 2 significant figures.
\item Use the substitution $u = x ^ { 2 }$ to show that the area of $R$ is given by
$$\int _ { 1 } ^ { 4 } 6 u ^ { \frac { 1 } { 2 } } \ln ( 2 u ) \mathrm { d } u$$
\item Hence, using calculus, find the exact area of $R$, writing your answer in the form $a + b \ln 2$, where $a$ and $b$ are constants to be found.
