MULTIPLE INTERGARLS

If f(x,y) is a function of two then its double Integral is

given by ∫ ∫ f(x,y)dx dy where
R

R is the Region under Integration

Note :-
In evaluating Double Integral first we integrate with
respect to variable limits and then with respect to
Constant limits.
We discuss 3 cases
1) If x limits are variables and y limits are constants That
is x =Ф1(y) to Ф2(y) and y =c to d

y=d
R
P Q
x= Ф2(y)
x = (Ф1y) y=c
Take a Horizontal Strip PQ and by standing this Strip
the entire Region R can be covered between the values
y=c to y=d .
In this case d Ф 2(y)
∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy = ∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy
R y=c x=Ф1(y)
Case(I) If x limits are constants and y limits are
variables, that is x =a to x=b and y= Ф1(x) to y = Ф2(x)

Q
y = Ф2(x)

X=b
X=a P y= Ф1(x)

Take a vertical Strip PQ and by sliding This string the

entire region R can be covered between the limits
x=a to x=b In this case

b Ф2(y)
∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy = ∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy
R x=a y=Ф1(y)

Case(ii) If x limits are constants and y limits are

constant that is x =x1 to x=x2 and y=y1 to y =y2
 y =y2
R
y= y1
x =x1 x=x2
We can take either Horizontal strip or Vertical strip In
this case

∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy = ∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy = ∫ ∫ f(x,y) dx dy
R y=y1 x=x1 x=x1 y=y1

Ex:-
1) b a
∫ ∫ (x2+y2) dx dy
y=0 x=0

∫ dy ∫ (x2+y2) dx

Solving the given equation y=x2 and y=x we get 0(0,0)
and A(1,1) Take a vertical strip PQ, then y limits are
y=x2 to y =x and x limits are x =0 to x=1

4) Evaluate ∫ ∫ y dxdy Where R is the Region bounded
by the parabola y2 = 4x and x2=4y

x2=4y
Q
A(4,4) y2=4x
P
0(0,0)

Sol:- Solving y2 = 4x and x2 = 4y we get 0(0,0) and

A(4,4) Take vertical Strip PQ, Then y limits are
y= x2 to y = 2√x and x limits are x=0 to x=4
