Chapter 7: Triple Integration
Section 7.3: Regions with Curved Boundaries
Essentials
Table 7.3.1 shows the six possible iterations of a triple integral given in Cartesian coordinates. Lower-case letters are used for lower limits of integration; upper-case for upper limits. (The names used for the functions in the limits of integration pertain to just the cell in which a particular iteration is displayed. Thus, in one cell the function Zx,y might appear, while in another Zy might appear. The function name is pertinent only to the cell in which it appears.)

Table 7.3.1 In Cartesian coordinates, the six iterations of a triple integral
Table 7.3.2 lists the basic Maple tools for iterating a triple integral in Cartesian coordinates. It is more extensive than the similar Table 7.2.2, which lists tools for iterating triple integrals over a three-dimensional "box."
