Volume of revolution - elephant1 - 07-05-2009 02:48 AM

I was wondering if it was possible to draw the volume of revolution around the x axis of the area between 2 lines: y=1 and y=x^2 between x=0 and x=1.
Thankyou

Hi elephant1,

Autograph is ideal for demonstrating volumes of revolution as I hope you will agree when you see the following video I have recorded for you.  Sorry the audio is a little low but hopefully you can still see what is going on.
