yikes, and apology -- i calculated volume not surface area. you probably know the formula, I will see if I can figure out.

new answer, surface area = (5^4)*(18^2)*pi left all in t variable, integrated with dt. for radius used x(t) ---for ds used square root of (dx/dt)^2+(dy/dt)^2)*dt---- had to integrate 2*pi*x(t)*ds from t=0 to t=5.----came up with (18^2)*pi times the integral of (t^4)*(t^2+1)^(1/2) --- to solve that integral, substitute t=sinh(theata). ---- the result is sinh^5(theta)/5. when t=5, theta = sinh^-1(5). --Sorry about volume mis-step. comment back if you need more help.
