Set-up a triple integral to determine the volume of the solid region bounded below by the paraboloid z=x^2 +y^2 and above by the sphere x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 2

It might be more forgiving to use polar (cylindrical) coordinates with this one, you up for it?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

\[\huge \iiint\limits_{S}dV\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure.. because I am not sure where to start

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Start with that. ^ When using a triple integral to evaluate a volume, you are basically solving a triple integral of a function equal to 1. Now you just have to find the limits.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by limits, do you mean the bounds?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

But I would suggest that you convert to polar.
