Consider the graph of the following function (see figure).
y^2 = 1/24 x(8 - x)^2

Find the area of the surface formed when the loop of this graph is revolved about the x-axis.

2? ?_0^8 ?(1/24 x(8 - x)^2) ? ?(1 + (d/dx[?(1/24 x(8 - x)^2)])^2) dx = 45.644

Set up the definite integral for finding the indicated surface area. Then use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate the surface area. Consider the graph of the following function (see figure): y^2 = 3x^6 - 8x. Find the area of the surface formed when the loop of this graph is revolved about the x-axis. ∫(2πy√(1+(dy/dx)^2))dx where y = √(3x^6 - 8x) and dy/dx = (9x^5 - 8)/√(3x^6 - 8x).
