Answer:
x = 2√2
y = 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the ratio of the two legs of the two smaller interior right triangles. (refer to attached diagrams for the triangles - I have outlined one in blue and the other in red)
These will be equal since the triangles are similar
shorter leg : longer leg
(blue triangle = red triangle)
⇒ x : 4 = 2 : x
⇒ x/4 = 2/x
⇒ x² = 8
⇒ x = √8
⇒ x = 2√2
Now we have x, we have the two legs of the right triangle with hypotenuse labelled y.
Using Pythagoras' Theorem a² + b² = c² (where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse)
⇒ 4² + (2√2)² = y²
⇒ y² = 24
⇒ y = √24
⇒ y = 2√6
In the direction we consider the
subintervals [0, 1] and [1, 2] (each with length 1), while in the
direction we consider the
subintervals [0, 2] and [2, 4] (with length 2). Then the lower right corners of the cells in the partition of
are (1, 0), (2, 0), (1, 2), (2, 2).
Let . The volume of the solid is approximately

More generally, the lower-right-corner Riemann sum over and
subintervals would be
Then taking the limits as and
leaves us with an exact volume of
