Hi, I want to verify if my answer to this problem I made up is correct?
Suppose we have a plane z=x+y
Lets find the magnitude of the volume of the space underneath the plane and over the REGION in the xy plane defined by y=sin(x), from 0<=x<=2pi.
So for example, my definition of the "magnitude of the volume" is analogous to saying the magnitude of the integral of sin(x) from 0 to 2pi is 4, not 0 because we took the absolute value of the negative section from pi to 2pi.
So first I integrate x+y dy from 0 to sin(x), then I break the integral
over x up into 2, from 0 to pi, and pi to 2pi. Doing this, I get an answer of 4pi.
Is my solution to what I want correct?
Thanks so much
