Find the volume of of the wedge shaped solid that lies above the xy plane, below the $z=x$ plane and within the cylinder $x^2+y^2 = 4$.



I'm having serious trouble picturing this. I think the z bounds are [0,x], but can't figure out any of the other ones.

          • why is it [$0,fracpi2$] and not [$pi, 2pi]$? The $dtheta$ bound is what I'm asking about, because I got all of the other ones. Also, why do you multiply by 2?

          • the region in xy plane, is of 1st and 4th quadrant, so $[pi, 2pi]$ doesn't look like being there.the volume is above 1st and 4th quadrant of xy plane, so you can adjust $dtheta$ accordingly.and since i chose $[0,fracpi2]$ so multiplied by 2

          I believe that you are describing a variation of the hoof of Archimedes (see figure below). If that's the case, I can give you a detailed solution and show you how to reduce the triple integral for volume to a single integration. From what you describe, the height would be $R$, rather than the $2R$ shown in the figure.

            Planes $x=rm const.$ intersect this solid $B$ in rectangles of width $2sqrt4-x^2$ and height $x$ (see the figure in Cye Waldman's answer). One therefore obtains
            $$rm vol(B)=int_0^2 2sqrt4-x^2>x>dx=-2over3(4-x^2)^3/2biggr|_0^2=16over3 .$$

              I believe that you are describing a variation of the hoof of Archimedes (see figure below). If that's the case, I can give you a detailed solution and show you how to reduce the triple integral for volume to a single integration. From what you describe, the height would be $R$, rather than the $2R$ shown in the figure.
