1Double Integrals
Before starting on double integrals let’s do a quick review of the definition of a definite integrals
for functions of single variables
...
For these integrals we can say that we
are integrating over the interval

...

Now, when we derived the definition of the definite integral we first thought of this as an area
problem
...


To get the exact area we then take the limit as n goes to infinity and this is also the definition of
the definite integral

With functions of one
variable we integrated over an interval (i
...
a one-dimensional space) and so it makes some

sense then that when integrating a function of two variables we will integrate over a region of
(two dimensional space)
...

Also, we will initially assume that
although this doesn’t really have to be the case
...


Now, just like with functions of one variable let’s not worry about integrals quite yet
...
We will first
approximate the volume much as we approximated the area above
...
This will divide R into a
series of smaller rectangles and from each of these we will choose a point

...


______________________________________________________________________________
DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

89

Applied II
DEBREMARKOSUNIVERSITY
______________________________________________________________________________
Now, over each of these smaller rectangles we will construct a box whose height is given
by

...


Each of the rectangles has a base area of
and a height of
so the volume of each of
these boxes is

...

To get a better estimation of the volume we will take n and m larger and larger and to get the
exact volume we will need to take the limit as both n and m go to infinity
...
This looks a lot like the definition of the integral of a function of
single variable
...

Here is the official definition of a double integral of a function of two variables over a
rectangular region R as well as the notation that we’ll use for it
...
We have two integrals to
denote the fact that we are dealing with a two dimensional region and we have a differential
here as well
...

______________________________________________________________________________
DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

90

Applied II
DEBREMARKOSUNIVERSITY
______________________________________________________________________________
Note as well that we don’t have limits on the integrals in this notation
...

Note that one interpretation of the double integral of f (x, y) over the rectangle R is the volume
under the function f (x, y) (and above the xy – plane)
...
We can do this by choosing
to be the midpoint of each rectangle
...
This leads to the Midpoint Rule,

Iterated Integrals
In the previous section we gave the definition of the double integral
...
We will continue to assume that
we are integrating over the rectangle
...

The following theorem tells us how to compute a double integral over a rectangle
...

Note that there are in fact two ways of computing a double integral and also notice that the
inner differential matches up with the limits on the inner integral and similarly for the out
differential and limits
...

Now, on some level this is just notation and doesn’t really tell us how to compute the double
integral
...

We will compute the double integral by first computing

and we compute this by

holding x constant and integrating with respect to y as if this were a single integral
...

We’ve done a similar process with partial derivatives
...

Double integrals work in the same manner
...

Let’s take a look at some examples
...
2 Double integrals over rectangular regions
Example1
...
To prove that let’s work this one with each order to make
sure that we do get the same answer

need to compute is,
When setting these up make sure the limits match up to the differentials

To compute this we will do the inner integral first and we typically keep the outer
integral around as follows,

______________________________________________________________________________

integration with it yet

Sure enough the same answer as the first solution
...

(a)
In this case we will integrate with respect to x first
...
e
...
We’ll also rewrite the integrand to help
with the first integration
...


Remember that when integrating with respect to y all x’s are treated as constants and so as far
as the inner integral is concerned the 2x is a constant and we know that when we integrate
constants with respect to y we just tack on a y and so we get 2xy from the first term
...
However,
sometimes one direction of integration is significantly easier than the other so make sure that you
think about which one you should do first before actually doing the integral

Now, if we’re going to be converting an integral in Cartesian coordinates into an integral in polar
coordinates we are going to have to make sure that we’ve also converted all the x’s and y’s into
polar coordinates as well
...


It is important to not forget the added r and don’t forget to convert the Cartesian coordinates in
the function over to polar coordinates
...

Example1 Evaluate the following integrals by converting them into polar coordinates
...


D is the portion of the region between the circles of radius 2 and radius 5
centered at the origin that lies in the first quadrant
...


D is the unit circle centered at the origin
...

First let’s get D in terms of polar coordinates
...
We want the region between them so we will have the following
inequality for r
...


Now that we’ve got these we can do the integral
...
Now, let’s simplify and make use of
the double angle formula for sine to make the integral a little easier
...

In this case we can’t do this integral in terms of Cartesian coordinates
...
First, the region D is defined by,
0

In terms of polar coordinates the integral is then,

Notice that the addition of the r gives us an integral that we can now do
...


There is one more type of example that we need to look at before moving on to the next
section
...
We need to see an example of
how to do this kind of conversion
...


Solution
First, notice that we cannot do this integral in Cartesian coordinates and so converting to polar
coordinates may be the only option we have for actually doing the integral
...

Let’s first determine the region that we’re integrating over and see if it’s a region that can be
easily converted into polar coordinates
...


Now, the upper limit for the x’s is,
and this looks like the right side of the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin
...

The range for the y’s however, tells us that we are only going to have positive y’s
...

So, we know that the inequalities that will define this region in terms of polar coordinates are
then,
Finally, we just need to remember that,
and so the integral becomes,
