Completing the Square Say we have a simple expression like  x 2  + bx . Having  x twice in the same expression can make life hard. What can we do? Well, with a little inspiration from Geometry we can convert it, like this: As you can see  x 2  + bx  can be rearranged  nearly  into a square ... ... and we can  complete the square  with  (b/2) 2 In Algebra it looks like this: x 2  + bx + (b/2)...

Section 4-1 : Double Integrals Before starting on double integrals let’s do a quick review of the definition of definite integrals for functions of single variables. First, when working with the integral, ∫ b a f ( x ) d x ∫ a b f ( x ) d x we think of  x x ’s as coming from the interval  a ≤ x ≤ b a ≤ x ≤ b . For these integra...
