Use washers. to get
Explanation:
The region is the bounded region in:
graph{(y-6x)(y-x)(y-0.0001x-18) sqrt(81-(x-9)^2)sqrt(85-(y-9)^2)/sqrt(81-(x-9)^2)sqrt(85-(y-9)^2) = 0 [-28.96, 44.06, -7.7, 28.83]}
Taking vertical slices and integrating over
Rewrite the region:
As
The greater radius is
Evaluate
# = (35pi)/36 int_0^18 y^2 dy#
# = 1890pi#
(Steps omitted because once it is set up, I think this is a straightforward integration.)
