    Practice Questions: Terry Lee Advanced Mathematics

    Eren Sevince
    This document contains solutions to two practice problems involving volumes of solids of revolution. The first problem involves finding the volume of a solid generated by revolving the region bounded by the curves y=1/x and y=0 about the line x=1. The volume is found using both slicing and shells methods, giving the same result of π2 cubic units. The second problem has two parts: (a) finding the volume of a solid generated by revolving a right triangular region about the x-axis, giving 6a(πa2/4) cubic units and (b) revolving an elliptical region about the x-axis, giving 3πa3/2 cubic units.
