Question
The integrals in 1922 represent the area of either a triangle or part of a circle, and the variable of integration measures a distance. In each case, say which shape is represented, and give the radius of the circle or the base and height of the triangle. Make a sketch to support your answer showing the variable and all other relevant quantities.
Solution
The first step in solving 8.1 problem number 19 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The integrals in 1922 represent the area of either a triangle or part of a circle, and the variable of integration measures a distance.
