How do you determine which function is used as 'outer' or 'inner' when computing volumes via discs involving two functions rotated about a horizontal axis?
Add both curves together prior to squaring regardless of their relative positions.
Always use absolute value differences irrespective rotation direction or relative position
Subtract lower curve from upper curve before squaring if rotating about horizontal axis.
Subtract higher curve from lower curve before squaring if rotating about horizontal axis.
If the region bounded by , , and is revolved around the y-axis, which method would be more efficient to find the volume of the resulting solid?
Disk Method, since we are rotating around a perpendicular axis to variable bounds.
Cross-sections Method, as it's not specific to rotation problems.
Washer Method, as it deals with solids with holes in them.
Shell Method, since it involves integrating with respect to y.

Can one use methods other than disks/washer solvers to obtain three-dimensional shapes created via rotations of specific regions in the plane?
Yes, the cylindrical shells method is an alternative to disk/washer solvers, relying on surface areas rather than cross-sectional views.
Rarely, since it typically is less accurate and more cumbersome to utilize compared to standard methodologies.
Potentially, however, it strictly depends upon shape complexity and practicality in employing alternative techniques.
No, there is no unique application exclusively to corners in mathematical practice.
