Problem Statement

Let CC be the curve expressed by x=sint, y=sin2t (0tπ2).x=\sin t,\ y=\sin 2t\ \left(0\leq t\leq \frac{\pi}{2}\right).
(1) Express yy in terms of xx.
(2) Find the area of the figure DD enclosed by the xx-axis and CC.
(3) Find the volume of the solid generated by a rotation of DD about the yy-axis.
