Application of Double Integrals
REMARKS:
If for all in a region R, the
double integral of f over R is the volume of the
solid whose base is R and whose height at a point
in R is .
If , the double integral of f over a
region R is just the area of R.

Recall:
In polar form, a
point has coordinates
(r, u),
where r is the directed
distance of the point from
the pole and u is the
radian measure of the
angle which the terminal
side of u makes with the
positive side of the x-axis,
also known as the polar
axis.
