A double integral is its counterpart in two

region R of the xy-plane. Divide the region R into sub-
regions by drawing lines parallel to co-ordinate axes.
Number the rectangles which lie entirely inside the region
R, from 1 to n. Let (x,, y,) be any point inside the rth
rectangle whose area is 5A,

material whether we integrate first along the horizontal

Note 1. From cases (i) and (ii) above, we observe that éntegration is to be performed w.r.t. that
variable having variable limits first and then w.r.t. the varéable with constant limits.
Note 2. If /ix, y) has discontinuities within or on the boundary of the region of integration, then the
change of the order of integration does not result into the same integrals.

6.4. CHANGE OF ORDER OF INTEGRATION
Ina double integral, ifthe limits of integration are constant, then the order of integration
is immaterial, provided the limits of integration are changed accordingly. Thus
[i [tesoraedy= PP fe) dy de.
But if the limits of integration are variable, a change in the order of integration necessitates
change in the limits of integration. A rough sketch of the region of integration helps in fixing the
new limits of integration.

same.
Sol. From the limits of integration, it is clear that
the region of integration is bounded by x=, x =a,y = 0
andy =a. Thus the region of integration is the AOAB and
is divided into horizontal strips. For changing the order of
integration, we divide the region of integration into verti-
cal strips. The new limits of integration become : y varies
from 0 tox and x varies from 0 toa.

Then the integral (1) is evaluated as follows :

‘The resulting expression, which is a function of y and z is then integrated w.r.t. y (keeping z

then integrated w.r-t. z between the limits z, andz,. The order of integration is from the innermost

Limits involving two variables are kept innermost, then the limits involving
