Background Information:
1. You can find the intersection points of two functions, say  $f(x),g(x),$
by setting  $f(x)=g(x)$  and solving for  $x.$
2. The area between two functions,  $f(x)$  and  $g(x),$  is given by  $\int _{a}^{b}f(x)-g(x)~dx$
for  $a\leq x\leq b,$  where  $f(x)$  is the upper function and  $g(x)$  is the lower function.

Solution:

(a)

Step 1:
We use  $u$-substitution.
Let  $u=1+x^{3}.$
Then,  $du=3x^{2}dx$  and  ${\frac {du}{3}}=x^{2}dx.$
Therefore, the integral becomes
${\frac {1}{3}}\int {\sqrt {u}}~du.$

Step 2:
We now have
Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle {\begin{array}{rcl}\displaystyle {\int x^{2}{\sqrt {1+x^{3}}}~dx}&=&\displaystyle {{\frac {1}{3}}\int {\sqrt {u}}~du}\\&&\\&=&\displaystyle {{\frac {2}{9}}u^{\frac {3}{2}}+C}\\&&\\&=&\displaystyle {{\frac {2}{9}}(1+x^{3})^{\frac {3}{2}}+C.}\end{array}}}

(b)

Step 1:
We use  $u$-substitution.
Let  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u=\sin(x).}
Then,  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle du=\cos(x)dx.}
Also, we need to change the bounds of integration.
Plugging in our values into the equation  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u=\sin(x),}   we get
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u_1=\sin\bigg(\frac{\pi}{4}\bigg)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}   and  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u_2=\sin\bigg(\frac{\pi}{2}\bigg)=1.}
Therefore, the integral becomes
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int_{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}^1 \frac{1}{u^2}~du.}

Step 2:
We now have
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{\int _{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin^2(x)}~dx} & = & \displaystyle{\int_{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}^1 \frac{1}{u^2}~du}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\left.\frac{-1}{u}\right|_{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}^1}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{-\frac{1}{1}-\frac{-1}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{-1+\sqrt{2}.} \end{array}}

Final Answer:
(a)     Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{2}{9}(1+x^3)^{\frac{3}{2}}+C}
(b)     Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle -1+\sqrt{2}}
