Answer

$V=2\pi \int_{0}^{\pi/3} x(\tan x-x)dx $

Work Step by Step

Given $$y=\tan x, y=x, x=\pi / 3 ; \quad \text { about the } y \text {-axis }$$ To find the volume of the solid when the bounded region rotates about $y-axsis$, we use the method of shell \begin{aligned} V&= 2\pi \int_a^b r(x)h(x)dx \end{aligned} Here $$r(x)= x,\ \ h(x) =\tan x-x $$ Then \begin{aligned} V&= 2\pi \int_a^b r(x)h(x)dx\\ &= 2\pi \int_{0}^{\pi/3} x(\tan x-x)dx \end{aligned}
