`y = tan(x), y = 0, x = pi/4` (a) Set up an integral for the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curve about...

Let's use the method of cylindrical shells.

The parameter for a cylinder will be `x` from `x=0` to `x=pi/4.`

The radius of a cylinder (the distance to the axis) is `pi/2-x,` the height is `tan(x).`

The volume is `2pi int_0^(pi/4) (pi/2-x)tanx dx.`

I believe "calculator" means "computer algebra system here". WolframAlpha says the answer is 2.25323.
