In this picture , the little rectangles represent the boxes for fixed j.The part of P having x contained in Q is between the two surfaces , =g(x) and =f(x) and there is a zero placed in those boxes for which
You see, has either the value of 1 or the value of 0 depending on whether (x,y) is contained in P. For te boxes shown with 0 in them, either all of the box is contained in P or none of the box is contained in P. Either way,
Is 1 because there are points in this box which are not in P as well as points which are in P . Because of the contruction of G which included all values of
The first of the sums in 3.15 contains all possible terms for which
Might be 1 due to the graph of the bottom surface g while the second sum contains all possible terms for which the expression might be 1 dues to the graph of the top surface f .
