Show that the volume of the solid formed by the curve y=cos(x/2), as it is rotated 360° around the x-axis between x= π/4 and x=3π/4, is of the form π^2/a. Find the constant a.


Find the turning points on the curve with the equation y=x^4-12x^2


The air pressure in the cabin of a passenger plane is modelled by the equation: P(x) = 3cos(x/2) - sin(x/2) where x is the altitude. Express P(x) in the form Rcos(x/2 +z) where z is acute and in degrees and then find the maximum pressure
