    Surface Area rotated about an axis which is not the x or y axis

    STUPID ME. To be honest I looked at my notes and I was looking for where I got \sqrt{y^{2}-1} and I can't find it anywhere. Maybe I got it from my original integral which was in terms of x then I just removed the inside of the radical. It's things like that which I need to watch out for. Thanks...

    you lost me there. May i ask why is it y instead of \sqrt{y^2 - 1}

    Surface Area rotated about an axis which is not the x or y axis

    Also guys...I have a problem. I solved for the both of them and i got different answers. Aren't they supposed to have the same answers?

    Surface Area rotated about an axis which is not the x or y axis

    I knew I was wrong there. So I solved for the values of y and I got √2 and √6 for my bounds in my second equation. Am I correct? OH! And thanks for noticing the 4y^2. I didn't notice that I did not square the Y as for this one, yeah, I get what your trying to say. I changed my answer. THIS...

    Surface Area rotated about an axis which is not the x or y axis

    Hi. I understand how to solve surface Area using integration when it is to be revolved about the x or y axis. But when the axis is not x or y I have a difficult time solving it. Please help me. Here is the equation sqrt(x+1) rotated at x=-1 and y=5. the bounds are 1 to 5. since y=sqrt(x+1)...
