Estimate the volume

Recall a problem we did way back in Section 5.1… Estimate the
of a solid sphere of radius 4.

Each slice can be approximated
by a cylinder:

Radius:

Height:

Volume of each cylinder:

By letting the height of each cylinder approach zero, we could
find the exact volume using a definite integral!!!

Volume as an Integral

Now, we will use similar techniques to calculate volumes

Volume as an Integral Now, we will use similar techniques to calculate
of many
different types of solids ? Let’s talk through Figure 7.16 on p.383

The volume of this cylinder is given by

base area x height

And the following sum approximates the volume of the
entire solid:

This is a Riemann sum for A(x) on [a, b]. We get better
approximations as the partitions get smaller ? Their limiting
integral can be defined as the volume of the solid.

Definition: Volume of a Solid

The volume of a solid of known integrable

Definition: Volume of a Solid The volume of a solid of known
cross section area
A(x) from x = a to x = b is the integral of A from a to b,

How to Find Volume by the Method of Slicing

1. Sketch the solid and a typical cross section.

2. Find a formula for A(x).

3. Find the limits of integration.

4. Integrate A(x) to find the volume.

A Note: Cavalieri’s Theorem

If two plane regions can be arranged to lie

A Note: Cavalieri’s Theorem If two plane regions can be arranged to
over the same interval
of the x-axis in such a way that they have identical vertical cross
sections at every point, then the regions have the same area.

a

x

b

Cross sections have
the same length at
every point in [a, b]

? So these blue shaded regions
have the exact same area!!!

This idea can be extended to
volume as well……take a
look at Figure 7.17 on p.384.

Our First Practice Problem

A pyramid 3 m high has congruent triangular sides

Our First Practice Problem A pyramid 3 m high has congruent triangular

base that is 3 m on each side. Each cross section of the pyramid
parallel to the base is a square. Find the volume of the pyramid.

Let’s follow our four-step process:

1. Sketch. Draw the pyramid with its vertex at the origin and its
altitude along the interval . Sketch a typical cross
section at a point x between 0 and 3.

2. Find a formula for A(x). The cross section at x is a square x
meters on a side, so
