This document describes topics related to multiple integrals, including double and triple integrals. It provides examples of calculating double integrals using different methods, such as changing the order of integration or changing variables. It also discusses evaluating double integrals over regions defined implicitly or bounded by curves. Several practice problems are included for calculating double integrals over given regions.

4.1 CHANGE OF ORDER OF INTEGRATION:
On changing the order of integration, the limits of the integration change. To
find the new limits, draw the rough sketch of the region of integration.
Some of the problems connected with double integrals, which seem to be
complicated can be made easy to handle by a change in the order of
integration.

It can be calculated as∫ ∫ ∫ ( , , ) . First we integrate with
respect to treating , as constant between the limits . The
resulting expression (function of , ) is integrated with respect to keeping
as constant between the limits . At the end we integrate the
resulting expression (function of only) within the limits .
First we integrate from inner most integral w.r.t z, and then we integrate
w.r.t , and finally the outer most w.r.t .
But the above order of integration is immaterial provided the limits change
accordingly.
