Volume Calculation by Rotation Methods

This video tutorial demonstrates how to use a graphing calculator to calculate the volume of solids formed by rotating functions around the V axis. It covers two methods: the disk method and the shell method. The video provides two examples: one using the disk method for the function y = x² + 1, and another using integration for the function y = log(x). The tutorial includes step-by-step instructions on setting up the integral and using the calculator to find the volume.
