Parametric Equations - Surface Area

What is the surface area $S$ of the body of revolution obtained by rotating the curve $y=e^x,$ $0 \le x \le 1,$ about the $x-$ axis?

\displaystyle{ \pi \left( e\sqrt{4+e^2}+\ln(e+\sqrt{4+e^2})-\sqrt{2}- \ln(\sqrt{2}+4)\right)}

\displaystyle{ \pi \left( e\sqrt{1+e^2}+\ln(e+\sqrt{1+e^2})-\sqrt{2}- \ln(\sqrt{2}+1)\right)}

\displaystyle{ \pi \left( e\sqrt{3+e^2}+\ln(e+\sqrt{3+e^2})-\sqrt{2}- \ln(\sqrt{2}+3)\right)}

\displaystyle{ \pi \left( e\sqrt{2+e^2}+\ln(e+\sqrt{2+e^2})-\sqrt{2}- \ln(\sqrt{2}+2)\right)}

What is the surface area $S$ of the body of revolution obtained by rotating the parametric curve $\begin{array}{c}&x = 8 t^2 + 9 &y = -4 t &0 \leq t \leq 1 \end{array}$ about the $x$ -axis?

\displaystyle{ \left(\frac{2}{3} - \frac{17\sqrt{272} }{6}\right)\pi}

\displaystyle{ \left(\frac{256}{387} - \frac{1088\sqrt{272} }{389}\right)\pi}

\displaystyle{ \left(\frac{32}{49} - \frac{272\sqrt{272} }{97}\right)\pi}

\displaystyle{ \left(\frac{256}{385} - \frac{544\sqrt{272} }{197}\right)\pi}
