sketch the graph of \(f\);

 

[1]
a.

a.

\({(1 + \sin x)^2} = 1 + 2\sin x + {\sin ^2}x\)

\( = 1 + 2\sin x + \frac{1}{2}(1 - \cos 2x)\)     A1

\( = \frac{3}{2} + 2\sin x - \frac{1}{2}\cos 2x\)     AG

b.

\(V = \pi \int_0^{\frac{{3\pi }}{2}} {{{(1 + \sin x)}^2}{\text{d}}x} \)     (M1)

\( = \pi \int_0^{\frac{{3\pi }}{2}} {\left( {\frac{3}{2} + 2\sin x - \frac{1}{2}\cos 2x} \right){\text{d}}x} \)

\( = \pi \left[ {\frac{3}{2}x - 2\cos x - \frac{{\sin 2x}}{4}} \right]_0^{\frac{{3\pi }}{2}}\)     A1
