Homework Statement



∫0 to 2 ∫x/4 to 1/2 (sin (pi*y2)) dy dx

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



I think I have to convert this to polar or do some sort of change of variable.

Although in polar y = r sin θ, so then you would have sin of a sin??

Try drawing the region and switching the order of integration, and this might allow you to use substitution rule hopefully, as I believe you will get something of the form [itex]\int y*\sin(\pi y^2) dy[/itex]

Sketch the region (in the xy-plane) over which the integration is being done. Use this to switch the order of integration.
