R _x² + y² = 1 R L <-1 (a) 1 X 1 Leaves at y-VI-a Enters at y=1-x x Although Fubini's Theorem assures us that a double integral may be calculated as an iterated integral in either order of integration, the value of one integral may be easier to find than the value of the other. The next example shows how this can happen. EXAMPLE 2 Calculate [[ R sin.x dA, where R is the triangle in the xy-plane bounded by the x-axis, the line y = x, and the line x = 1. Solution The region of integration is shown in Figure 15.13. If we integrate first with respect to y and next with respect to x, then because x is held fixed in the first integration, we find -X sinx L'inx dy) dx = f[x dx = ' [, ²x]" d dx = X 0 3-0 - f'sit 0 If we reverse the order of integration and attempt to calculate IS, dx dy. sin x X sin.x dx = -cos (1) + 1 ≈ 0.46. we run into a problem because ((sinx)/x) dx cannot be expressed in terms of elemen- tary functions (there is no simple antiderivative). There is no general rule for predicting which order of integration will be the good one in circumstances like these. If the order you first choose doesn't work, try the other. Some- times neither order will work, and then we may need to use numerical approximations. Finding Limits of Integration We now give a procedure for finding limits of integration that applies for many regions in the plane. Regions that are more complicated, and for which this procedure fails, can often be split up into pieces on which the procedure works.
