Find the region enclosed by one leaf of the function r=2 sin2θ


Now i know how the diagram looks like for this function.
The diagram can be obtained by using :

x= r cosθ = 2 sin2θ cosθ
y= r sinθ = 2 sin2θ sinθ

Now i have to find the region enclosed by one of the leaves which i am not able to do.
I know i have to use the jacobian and also that i can use the above as cylindrical coordinates but what do i integrate? i don't know which function to integrate.

Any Suggestions for that??

thank you

\frac{1}{2}\int r^{2} .d\theta

You can use that formula

Wouldn't it be \int r d\theta

I could be missing something of course...
 
Is the half for finding each half of the region of the leaf?
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
