Figure 5.7.9(b) is an animation in which the two curves are drawn under the action of the slider in the animation toolbar. The polar angle appears above the vertical axis. Use this animation to infer the appropriate angles for the iterated double integral that follows.

Inspired by the animation in Figure 5.7.9(b), Figure 5.7.9(c) is a graph of and . It suggests that the two curves intersect at . The shaded region in Figure 5.7.9(a) is traced for .

The task template in Table 5.7.9(a) can be used to visualize the region of integration over which a given iterated integral acts. Select an order of integration, and provide an integrand of 1 to compute area. Supply the limits of integration, and use the Exact button to obtain the value of the iterated integral, and the Draw Graphs button to obtain the two figures provided by the task template.

Table 5.7.9(a) Task template for visualizing a polar region of integration

The figure on the left is an animation that shows how the radial cone representing traverses the region of integration. The figure on the right is a representation of the volume of a solid of height 1, with base the region of integration. Since the height is 1, the number computed for the volume is the same number as the area. If this figure is rotated and viewed from above, it appears to be a shaded version of the region of integration. These visual clues help to decide of the polar area has been properly identified and calculated.
The details of an interactive calculation of the required area appear in Table 5.7.9(b).
