Volumes of Cylinders

• Definition

  • We can think of it by taking the volume of the integral by making it into cylinder shapes perpendicular to the axis of integration,

    • such that we are taking the circumference of the cylinder and multiplying it by the height (the function we are integrating) and then the thickness (dx, dx being infinitely small)
