![Gabriel's Horn is defined to be the region obtained by rotating the region below the graph of \( f(x) = \frac{1}{x} \) from \( x \geq 1 \) about the \( x \)-axis.
![Graphic: A 3D illustration of Gabriel's Horn, resembling a trumpet shape with a wide opening that tapers off to an infinitely thin end.]
(a) Show that the horn has finite volume.
(b) Use the formula \(\int_a^b 2\pi f(x) \sqrt{1 + [f'(x)]^2} \, dx\) for the surface area of a solid of revolution rotated about the \( x \)-axis to show that the horn has infinite surface area. See § 7.5 for details on how this formula is derived.
