  1. A chef plans to create an ornament for his master dish. The ornament is made by rotating the shaded region as shown in the diagram completely about the \(y\)-axis. The region is bounded by the parabola \(y={{\left( x-3 \right)}^{2}}\), the curve \(C\) and the lines \(y=9+d\) and \(y=d\), where \(0 < d < 9\). The curve \(C\) is the reflection of the parabola along the line \(y=9\).

    1. Find the equation of the curve \(C\).[2]
    2. Find the volume of the ornament in terms of \({d}\).[5]
    3. By varying the value of \({d}\), find the maximum volume for the ornament correct to the nearest integer. State the value of \({d}\) corresponding to this maximum volume.[2]
