The region between y = x & y = -x² + 2x revolves around y = x. Determine the volume.

The discussion revolves around calculating the volume of the region between the curves y = x and y = -x² + 2x when revolved around the line y = x. The scope includes mathematical reasoning and the application of volume calculation techniques.
Participants express differing views on the volume calculation methods and results, indicating that multiple competing approaches and interpretations exist without a consensus on the correct answer.
There are references to specific formulas and methods, but the discussion does not resolve the correctness of these methods or the assumptions underlying them.

I tried using the theorem of Pappus. Is $$\pi/6$$ incorrect?
How did you get your answer?
