Homework Statement
What is the area of the portion of the sphere x^{2}+y^{2}+(z-a)^{2}=a^{2} that is inside the paraboloid z=x^{2}+y^{2}
Homework Equations
\int\int_{S} dS
The Attempt at a Solution
I used this
\int\int_{S} dS=\int\int_{R}\sqrt{f^{2}_{x}+f^{2}_{y}+1}dx dy
And got
=\int\int_{R}\frac{a}{\sqrt{a^{2}-x^{2}-y^{2}}}dx dy
I know that R is the projection of the surface on the xy plane, but I tried a few different ways to compute the boundaries but it never made sense. Maybe I'm just approaching it the wrong way. Anyone can help me with this?
