Representation of a Volume by an Area. — In on the significance of an area as an integral it was statedthat the integrals represented by areas might be functionsof various kinds. To show an example of a volume as anintegral represented by an area under a curve, let the volumeof the paraboloid of revolution, between x = 0 and x = 4,be first found as the limit of the sum of the parts between REPRESENTATION OF A VOLUME BY AN AREA 269 the parallel planes Ax apart, as Ax = 0 and the numberof the parts increases without limit.
