Double and Triple integration
1) Evaluate the following integrals:
Z 1 Z 2
(a) f (x)dxdy , where f (x, y) = e−xy
0 0
.
Note: If the order and limits of the integral is not clear, always take the inner
integral with the inner limits and outer with outer limits. In this question, you
should evaluate it as: Z Z 1 2
f (x, y)dx dy
0 0
Z 2 Z 1
(b) (x − y) dydx;
0 0
Note the change in order. Integration limit with respect to x is [0, 2] and y is [0, 1]
Z πZ 1
(c) (x − sin y) dxdy
0 0
Z π Z π/2
(d) (xy − sin x) dxdy
0 0
Z 5 Z 1
x2 + y 2 dxdy
(e) Sometimes the limits are explicitly given:
x=0 y=0
(f) Other times, the integration is also given as:
Z π Z 1
dx dy [y sin x]
0 0
2) Find the volume under the surface f (x, y) = x2 y bounded by the rectangle with vertices
(0, 0), (0, 2), (2, 1), (0, 1) and the xy-plane.

3) Find the volume of the cuboid formed by the plane f (x, y) = 1 and the xy-plane bound
by x = [0, 5] and y = [0, 5].
4) Find the volume under the surface f (x, y) = x2 + y 2 bounded by the rectangle with
vertices (1, 0), (2, 0), (2, 1), (1, 1) and the xy-plane as shown below in the figure.
5) Verify using double integral that the area of a rectangle of sides l × w is lw.
Hint: The area is simply integration of dx from x = [0, l] and dy from y = [0, w]. Hence:
Z w Z l
Area = dxdy
0 0
.
6) Using the same approach as above question, calculate the volume of a cuboid of dimension
l × w × h. Hint: Since there is height, it will be triple integral dxdydz.
