09 Applications of Double Integrals

The document discusses applications of double integrals for calculating volumes of solids. It provides an example of using a double integral to calculate the volume of a tetrahedron bounded by planes. Another example calculates the volume of a solid enclosed by two paraboloids by taking the double integral of one paraboloid and subtracting the double integral of the other. The final volume is calculated to be 16π.

Suppose S is given b z = f (x, y). Then S can be parametrized
by r(x, y) = hx, y, f (x, y)i and hence
rx (x, y) = h1, 0, fx (x, y)i ,

ry (x, y) = h0, 1, fy (x, y)i .

It follows that
rx ry = hfx (x, y), fy (x, y), 1i
and hence
krx ry k =

q
[fx (x, y)]2 + [fy (x, y)]2 + 1

and we have
q
A(S) =
[fx (x, y)]2 + [fy (x, y)]2 + 1 dA
