The curves r=1+2sin⁡θr=1+2\sin\theta and r=2r=2 intersect at θ=π/6\theta=\pi/6 and θ=5π/6\theta=5\pi/6. What is the exact area of the region they enclose for 0≤θ≤2π0\le\theta\le 2\pi? (a) 2π3+532\dfrac{2\pi}{3}+\dfrac{5\sqrt3}{2} (b) 532−π3\dfrac{5\sqrt3}{2}-\dfrac{\pi}{3} (c) π3+53\dfrac{\pi}{3}+5\sqrt3 (d) 2π3+53\dfrac{2\pi}{3}+5\sqrt3
