MAT235 Tutorial 12 (Feb.

13 – 16)

1. Practice problems

(1) Evaluate D sin(9x2 + 4y 2 ) dA, where D is the region bounded by the ellipse 9x2 + 4y 2 = 1. (Hint:
RR

Transform the ellipse into a circle.)

Answer: One possible solution is to use the transformations x = u3 , y = v2 . Substituting this into the
given equation for an ellipse, we get u2 + v 2 = 1, and so in the uv-plane our region

∂(x,y) 0
the unit circle, which we will call S. Computing the Jacobian gives: ∂(u,v) = det 3 1 = 16 . Thus,

using x = u3 and y = v2 , the change of variables formula says

sin(9x + 4y ) dA = sin(u2 + v 2 ) du dv.

To evaluate the latter integral, we can convert to polar coordinates in the uv-plane:

sin(u2 + v 2 ) du dv = sin(r2 ) r dr dθ = ,
S 6 0 0 6 6
where we solve the integral using the substitution w = r2 .
Another possible solution: Use the substitutions 3x = r cos θ and 2y = r sin θ to directly convert the
ellipse into a circle in the (r, θ)-plane.

(2) Let R be the region in the first quadrant bounded by the lines y = RRx, y = 3x, xy = 1, and xy = 3.
Using the transformation given by x = u and y = uv , rewrite R xy dA in terms of u and v.
Your double integral should end with du dv. (Simplify as much as possible without evaluating any
integrals.)
 
∂(x,y) 1 0
Answer: First we compute the Jacobian of the given transformation: ∂(u,v) = det = u1 .
− uv2 u1
Next, we convert the given equations into uv-coordinates. The equations y = x and y = 3x become
v = u2 and v = 3u2 , respectively. The equations xy = 1 and xy = 3 become v = 1 and v = 3,
respectively. Thus, the region R in the xy-plane is the image of the region S below in the uv-plane
which looks like the following:

p √
As v ranges over 1 ≤ v ≤ 3, we know u ranges over v/3 ≤ u ≤ v. Finally, the function we
want to integrate becomes xy = u uv = v. Putting all of this together and using the change of variable

formula, we get a final answer of

2. Sample quiz problem


(1) Let R be the region bounded by the lines x = 0, y = 0,RRy = x, y = 4x, xy = 1, and xy = π. Using
the transformation given by x = u and y = uv , rewrite R xy dA in terms of u and v. Your double
integral should end with du dv. (Simplify as much as possible without evaluating any integrals.)

Final answer: √

xy dA = √
