To find the volume of the surface of revolution created by revolving the region bounded by two functions f(x)
and g(x)
about a horizontal line y=h
, where h
is the height of the axis of revolution, we can use the following formula:
In our case, f(x) = 8 - x^2
, g(x) = x^2
, and h = 10
. We need to find the integral limits a
and b
such that the two functions bound the region of revolution. From the functions f(x)
and g(x)
we can see that they intersect at x = -2
and x = 2
. Therefore, the integral limits are -2
and 2
. We can now write the MATLAB code to evaluate the volume using this formula:

This code will output the value of the volume of the surface of revolution.
