MHB 15.3.53 Sketch the region of the double integration and evaluate

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around evaluating a double integral in polar coordinates and sketching the corresponding region of integration. The integral is corrected to range from 0 to π/6 for θ, and from 0 to sec(θ) for r, leading to the evaluation of the integral resulting in W|A = 5/(3√3). Users discuss how to graph this in Desmos, emphasizing the need to switch to a polar coordinate grid for accurate representation. There is clarification on the limits of integration, ensuring they align with the expected values. The focus remains on correctly setting up and visualizing the integral for accurate evaluation.

$\textsf{a. Sketch the region of integration and evaluate.}\\$
\begin{align*}\displaystyle
\int_{6}^{\frac{\pi}{6}}
\int_{0}^{\sec{\theta}}
6r^{3} drd\theta\\
W|A=\frac{5}{3\sqrt{3}}
\end{align*}
OK I really didn't know how to do this in desmos

So your question is just about how to graph this using "Desmos"? First, to get to polar coordinates, click on the "wrench" icon in the upper right of the page, just below the menu bar. That opens a dialog box that has "Grid", "Axis Numbers", "X-Axis", and "Y-Axis" checked. Right below "Grid" are two circles, one with a rectangular pattern, the other with radii and circles. Click on the second to get a polar coordinate grid. There is no way to graph \theta= \pi/6 in Desmos since all function have to be functions of r but it is easy to see that it is a radial line.

Is the integral really from 6 to \pi/6? Are you sure it is not from 0 to \pi/6? That would make much more sense.

yes sorry it should be $\displaystyle\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{6}}$

Thread 'Problem with calculating projections of curl using rotation of contour'
Hello! I tried to calculate projections of curl using rotation of coordinate system but I encountered with following problem. Given: ##rot_xA=\frac{\partial A_z}{\partial y}-\frac{\partial A_y}{\partial z}=0## ##rot_yA=\frac{\partial A_x}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial A_z}{\partial x}=1## ##rot_zA=\frac{\partial A_y}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial A_x}{\partial y}=0## I rotated ##yz##-plane of this coordinate system by an angle ##45## degrees about ##x##-axis and used rotation matrix to...
