Question 1(c)

Double Integral – Change of Variables

1Question

Evaluate \(\iint_R(x-y)^2\cos^2(x+y)\,dxdy\), where \(R\) is the rhombus with vertices \((\pi,0),(2\pi,\pi),(\pi,2\pi),(0,\pi)\).

2Diagram

Question 1(c): Rhombus transformed into a rectangle
2020 IFoS Maths Optional Paper II Solutions diagram for Question 1(c): rhombus region transformed using u equals x minus y and v equals x plus y into a rectangular integration region.

3Concept Related to the Question

This question belongs to Double Integral – Change of Variables. First identify the standard theorem or formula, then substitute the given data carefully.

4Detailed Solution

Put \(u=x-y\) and \(v=x+y\). Then \(dxdy=\frac12dudv\). The rhombus becomes the rectangle \(-\pi\le u\le\pi\), \(\pi\le v\le3\pi\). Therefore the integral is \(\frac12\int_{-\pi}^{\pi}u^2du\int_{\pi}^{3\pi}\cos^2v\,dv\). These are \(2\pi^3/3\) and \(\pi\).

5Final Answer

The value is \(\pi^4/3\).

Question 1(d)
