As found in Exercise 39, the centroid of the semicircle y = a 2 - x 2
Question:
As found in Exercise 39, the centroid of the semicircle y = √a2 - x2 lies at the point (0, 2a/π). Find the area of the surface generated by revolving the semicircle about the line y = x - a.
Data from in Exercise 39
Use Pappus’s Theorem for surface area and the fact that the surface area of a sphere of radius a is 4πa2 to find the centroid of the semicircle y = √a2 - x2.
