The double integral gives the signed volume under the surface. Since the surface is always positive, it is always above the - plane and hence produces only “positive” volume.

surface areas
Intuitively, adding to only shifts up (i.e., parallel to the -axis) and does not change its shape. Therefore it will not change the surface area over .
Analytically, and ; therefore, the surface area of each is computed with identical double integrals.

Answers can vary. From this section we used triple integration to find the volume of a solid region, the mass of a solid, and the center of mass of a solid.

In cylindrical, determines how far from the origin one goes in the - plane before considering the -component. Equivalently, if on projects a point in cylindrical coordinates onto the - plane, will be the distance of this projection from the origin.
In spherical, is the distance from the origin to the point.
Cylinders (tubes) centered at the origin, parallel to the -axis; planes parallel to the -axis that intersect the -axis; planes parallel to the - plane.
The region in space is bounded between the planes and , inside of the cylinder , and the planes and : describes a “wedge” of a cylinder of height 2 and radius 2; the angle of the wedge is , or .
Bounded between the plane and the cone : describes an inverted cone, with height of 1, point at and base radius of 1.
Describes a quarter of a ball of radius 3, centered at the origin; the quarter resides above the - plane and above the - plane.
Describes the portion of the unit ball that resides in the first octant.
Bounded above the cone and below the sphere : describes a shape that is somewhat “diamond”-like; some think of it as looking like an ice cream cone (see Figure 14.7.8). It describes a cone, where the side makes an angle of with the positive -axis, topped by the portion of the ball of radius 2, centered at the origin.
The region in space is bounded below by the cone and above by the plane : it describes a cone, with point at the origin, centered along the positive -axis, with height of 1 and base radius of .
