Given a region R in xy-plane, sometimes it is rather easy to describe
the boundary of R in terms of polar coordinates instead of rectangular
coordinates. An example is x2 + y2 = a2 , can be easily described as
{ (r, θ ) | 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π, 0 ≤ r ≤ a }. It is the reason why one needs to
develop the double integral in terms of polar coordinates, just like the
one in rectangular coordinates.
Without really getting into the details, one can subdivide the plane
region R in terms of polar parameters, just like defining double
integral, so that we have a sectorial area ∆A = r ∆r ∆θ, so the
Riemann sum is written ∑ f (ri cos θj , ri sin θj ) ri ∆r ∆θ, which will

∫∫

f (r cos θ, r sin θ ) r dr dθ, where R′
is the domain for θ and r representing the domain R in xy-plane.

One can describe D in terms of polar coordinates as follows
{ (r, θ ) | − π2 ≤ θ ≤ π2 , 0 ≤ r ≤ 1 }.
.
Example. For any a > 0, prove that the equation r = 2a sin θ in polar

Solution. The curve x2 + y2 = 2ax can be described in polar
coordinates as r2 = r2 (cos2 θ + sin2 θ ) = x2 + y2 = 2ay = 2ar sin θ, so
one has r = 2a sin θ (0 ≤ θ ≤ π ). Geometrically, it means a
right-angled triangle circumscribed in a circle of diameter 2a.

Solution. The paraboloid S : z = 25 − x2 − y2
intersect the xy-plane π : z = 0 in the curve C :
0 = 25 − x2 − y2 , which is a circle x2 + y2 = 52 .
So the shadow R of the solid D after projecting
onto xy-plane is given by the circular disc R =
{ (x, y) | x2 + y2 ≤ 52 }, in polar coordinates is
given by { (r, θ ) | 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π, 0 ≤ r ≤ 5}.

Example. Find the volume of the solid that lies under the paraboloid
z. = x2 + y2 , above the xy-plane, and inside the cylinder x2 + y2 = 2x.
Solution. The cylinder x2 + y2 = 2x lies over
the circular disk D which can be described as
{ (r, θ ) | − π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2, 0 ≤ r ≤ 2r cos θ }
in polar coordinates. The reason is that if we
write (x, y, z) = (r cos θ, r sin θ, z) for any point
in the cylinder, then r2 = x2 + y2 ≤ 2x =
2r cos θ, i.e. r ≤ 2 cos θ. As 2 cos θ ≥ r ≥ 0,
it follows that
−π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2. The height of the solid is the z-value of the
paraboloid from the xy-plane. Hence the volume V of the solid is

Example. Find the volume of the solid bounded above by the
paraboloid
z = 8 − x2 − y2 , and below by the paraboloid z = x2 + y2 .
.
Solution. Let P(x, y, z) be the intersection of two
paraboloids, then one has 8 − x2 − y2 = z = x2 +
y2 , so x2 + y2 = 4 = 22 , which is a circle. The
shadow R of the solid D is then the circular disc,
in polar coordinates { (r, θ ) | 0 ≤ r ≤ 2, 0 ≤ θ ≤
2π }. As 0 ≤ r ≤ 2, we have r2 ≤ 4, i.e. r2 ≤ 8 − r2 ,
so one knows that the top of the solid is given by
ztop = 8 − x2 − y2 = 8 − r2 , and the bottom of the
solid is given by zbottom = x2 + y2 = r2 .

First Theorem of Pappus: Volume of Revolution
.
Suppose that a plane region R is revolved around an axis in its plane
generating a solid of revolution with volume V. Assume that the axis
does not intersect the interior of R. Then the volume V of the solid is
V = A · d,
where A is the area of R and d is the distance traveled by the centroid
.of R.
Remark. Cut the region R into vertical strips, and each vertical strip
after rotating will form a ring, which contributes ∆Vi = 2πxi∗ ∆Ai ,
where Ai is the area of the vertical strip. It follows from Riemann sum
