Note that #secxgt=1# for all values of #x#.

Here's the graph of #secx#:

graph{secx [-14.24, 14.24, -7.12, 7.12]}

There is no region bounded by #secx#, #x=pi//4# and the axis without another vertical line in the form #x=a# to serve as a boundary of our region.

We don't have enough information to complete this problem.
