Hello! Sorry if there is any typos, english is not my native language.
First i tried to visualize the graph, by plotting it. But now i am clueless as to how to find the values of a. Should i equal y=ax to the elipsis to find the intersection point?
I tried isolating Y and working with the positive part of the square root, and found sqrt{3}. Is this correct?
Thank you!
Being "a" a real and positive number. The volume of the solid obtained by spinning around the x axis the region of the first quadrant limited by y=ax, the x axis and the a²x²+y²=2a² ellipsis is equal to 4π{sqrt{2}-1}. What is the value of a?
