Homework Statement
This is so basic and yet I'm not getting it.
Find the volume of the solid when the region enclosed is revolved arond the y axis.
x = \sqrt{1 + y}
x=0, y=3
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
So I first graphed the thing, finding that the enclosed area was between y=1 and y=3. I took the volumne of the equation, or A=pi *\sqrt{1 + y}^2. I then took the integral, pi * \int_{1}^{3} 1 + y dy, coming out with 6*pi. My book says this isn't right. Did I do anything wrong? Use the wrong formula?
