Given a solid $R$ contained in a semi cylinder with the hight $1$ which has a semicircle with radius $1$ as the base. The cross section at the hight $x\ (0\leq x\leq 1)$ is the form combined with two right-angled triangles as attached figure as below. Answer the following questions. (1) Find the cross-sectional area $S(x)$ at the hight $x$. (2) Find the volume of $R$. If necessary, when you integrate, set $x=\sin t.$
