1. Set up the volume integral for a rotation of $\pi$ radians.
The solid is generated by rotating the region through radians (half a revolution) about the -axis. The volume generated is half of the standard volume of revolution for a full rotation.
2. Differentiate the substitution and determine the new limits of integration.
Using the given substitution :
Finding the new limits:
When ,
When ,
3. Apply the substitution to the volume integral and simplify.
Substitute into the volume integral:
4. Evaluate the trigonometric integral to find the exact volume.
Evaluate the integral by splitting :
