Multiple Integrals Summary Sheet Given: Integrand function f (x, y, z ), domain of integration D.

Evaluate:
D

f dD,
D

f dD or
D

f dD.

1) Pick coordinate system: xyz (Rectangular), rz (Cylindrical) or (Spherical), or uvw (General Jacobian), domain element dD becomes: dA = dArea dV = dVolume ds = dArclength dS = dSurfaceArea

2) Sketch the domain, write down the boundaries of domain to get the limits of integration. 3) Pick the order of integration, do the iterated integrals, starting from the innermost, one variable at a time.

The ||stu|| in the general formula for dS means the length of the cross product vector given by the determinant. For the Jacobian in dA and dV the double bars mean the absolute value of the determinant.
