Math Problem Statement
A torus is formed when a circle of radius 3 centered at left parenthesis 6 comma 0 right parenthesis is revolved about the y-axis. a. Use the shell method to write an integral for the volume of the torus. b. Use the washer method to write an integral for the volume of the torus. c. Find the volume of the torus by evaluating one of the two integrals obtained in parts (a) and (b). (Hint: Both integrals can be evaluated without using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.)
