What is the area enclosed by #r=theta^2-2sintheta # for #theta in [pi/4,pi]#?

1 Answer

Area #=21.86658""" """"square units"#

Explanation:

#r=theta^2-2*sin theta#

Area #=1/2int_(pi/4)^pi r^2 d theta#

Area #=1/2int_(pi/4)^pi(theta^2-2*sin theta)^2 d theta#

Area #=1/2int_(pi/4)^pi(theta^4-4*theta^2*sin theta+4sin^2theta) d theta#

Area #=1/2*[theta^5/5+4*theta^2*cos theta-8*theta*sin theta-8*cos theta+2*theta-sin 2theta]_(pi/4)^pi#evaluate from #pi/4# to #pi#

Area #=21.86658""" """"square units"#

I hope the explanation is useful....God bless...
