We can view the double integral as the volume of the solid bounded by the planes
(colored blue),
and the cylinders
(colored yellow),
(colored green).

If we integrate

![]()
¡@

![]()
5. Evaluate the iterated integral
.
If we try to evaluate the integral as it stands, then we need to find the antiderivatives of
. But this is impossible, because
does not have a closed form. So we must change the order of integration.
Note that

![]()
where D = {(

,
}.
![]()
From the animation below, we see an alternative description of D is
D = {(

}.
![]()
Hence, by Fubini's theorem, we have

In terms of Cartesian coordinates, D is bounded by

However, the iterated integral is rather complicated to compute. Note that D is rather easy to described using polar coordinates, namely,

By symmetry
