There are many YouTube videos outlining how to integrate
In the video, the function is integrated from 0 to 1. In fact, this proper integral is converted into an infinite series so traditional integration is not possible. The result is quite impressive: The result for is similar: Figure 1 shows the SageMath code to draw the two graphs in the given range and to calculate the area bounded by them:

Figure 2 shows the result with annotations added:

It's hard to see but the area bounded by the two curves is shown at the bottom left and is approximately 0.507855 square units. Figure 3 shows an alternative representation using GeoGebra:

These graphs, their turning points and the bounded area between them are most interesting. Let's not forget that the turning points for both graphs occur when because: The result is the same for , only the y values differ with for and for .
