(a) The curves y = sin x and y = cos x intersect at x = π/4 and x = 5π/4. Find the exact area enclosed between the curves for π/4 ≤ x ≤ 5π/4.
(b) Use integration by parts to find the exact value of ∫0π/4 xcos 2x dx.

The height, h metres, of a tree t years after planting is modelled by dh/dt = (8 - h)/10. When planted, the tree is 1 m tall.
(a) Solve the differential equation to find h in terms of t.
(b) Find the time taken for the tree to reach 6 m.
(c) State the height the model predicts the tree will approach, and give one criticism of the model.
