■ EXAMPLE 1 Volume of a Pyramid Calculate the volume V of a pyramid of height
12 m whose base is a square of side 4 m.
Solution To use Eq. (1), we need a formula for the horizontal cross section A(y).
Step 1. Find a formula for A(y).
Figure 3 shows that the horizontal cross section at height y is a square. To find the
sides of this square, apply the law of similar triangles to AABC and to the triangle of
height 12-y whose base of lengths lies on the cross section:
We find that s =

[²²/1 (12- y)² dy = - 2/7 (12 - y) ³¹/1²
This agrees with the result obtained using the formula V = Ah for the volume of a
pyramid of base A and height h, since Ah = }(4²)(12) = 64.

■ EXAMPLE 2 Compute the volume V of the solid in Figure 4, whose base is the region
between the inverted parabola y = 4 - x² and the x-axis, and whose vertical cross sections
perpendicular to the y-axis are semicircles.
Solution To find a formula for the area A (y) of the cross section, observe that y = 4 - x²
can be written x = ±√4-y. We see in Figure 4 that the cross section at y is a semicircle
of radius r = √√4-y. This semicircle has area A(y) = r² = (4- y). Therefore,

In the next example, we compute volume using vertical rather than horizontal cross
sections. This leads to an integral with respect to x rather than y.
■ EXAMPLE 3 Volume of a Sphere: Vertical Cross Sections Compute the volume of a
sphere of radius R.
Solution As we see in Figure 5, the vertical cross section of the sphere at x is a circle
whose radius r satisfies x² + ² = R² or r = √R² - x². The area of the cross section is
А(x) = лr² = л(R² – x²). Therefore, the sphere has volume
[² x (R² - x²) dx = x (R²x - 5)^² = 2(xr³ —ײ³) = ²*³
