Let R be the triangular region in the first quadrant with vertices at points (0,0), (a,0), and (0,b), where a and b are positive
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

volume of the solid generated when region R is revolved about the x-axis is π ₀∫^a ( \frac{-b}{a}x + b )² dx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the image below;

R is in the region first quadrant with vertices; 0(0,0), A(a,0) and B(0,b)

from the image;

the equation of AB will be;

y-b / b-0 = x-0 / 0-a

(y-b)(0-a) = (b-0)(x-0)

0 - ay -0 + ba = bx - 0 - 0 + 0

-ay + ba = bx  

ay = -bx + ba

divide through by a

y = \frac{-b}{a}x + ba/a

y = \frac{-b}{a}x + b

so R is bounded by  y = \frac{-b}{a}x + b and y =0, 0 ≤ x ≤ a

The volume of the solid revolving R about x axis is;

dv = Area × thickness

= π( Radius)² dx

= π ( \frac{-b}{a}x + b )² dx

V = π ₀∫^a ( \frac{-b}{a}x + b )² dx

Therefore,  volume of the solid generated when region R is revolved about the x-axis is π ₀∫^a ( \frac{-b}{a}x + b )² dx

What are the coordinates of the point (2, −3) after a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin?
Katen [24]

Answer:

(2,-3) changes to (3,2)

A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The point (2, −3) after a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin.

R_{90\circ}(x,y)\rightarrow (-y,x)

Rotation is counterclockwise about origin.  

(x,y)\rightarrow (-y,x)

We are given coordinate

(2,-3)\rightarrow (3,2)

We can see in diagram also. Please see the attachment for rotation.

Hence, (2,-3) changes to (3,2)
