Problem 1(d)
Compute the surface area of , which is the (finite) surface of the cylinder 2 + 2 = 1
limited by = 2 + + 5 and = 0. (It is a tube without the top cover and the
bottom cover).

Proof. We parameterize 1 by (, ) = (cos , sin , ), where


0 < < 2 0 < < cos 2 + sin + 5.
Note that
= ( sin , cos , 0) = (0,0,1)
The coefficients of First Fundamental Form are
= = 1 = = 0 = = 1
Thus we know that

Problem 2(a)
Calculate the following surface integral:

where is the boundary of the tetrahedron (standard 3-simplex) which is the


intersection of

Proof. We split into 4 pieces:


1 : (, ) = (, , 1 )
2 :
(, ) = (0, , )
3 :
(, ) = (, 0, )
4 :
(, ) = (, , 0)
First of all, for 1, we have

thus the coefficients of First Fundamental Form are

Proof. Consider the parameterization (, ) = ((, ), (, ), (, )) of :

Its derivatives are

= ( sin sin , sin cos , 0)
Thus we have
= ( sin2 cos , sin2 sin , sin cos )
and
= (sin ( cos sin ) + cos , sin ( cos + sin )
cos , sin ( sin cos ) + cos ).
Hence

Problem 6
Let be the unit sphere 2 + 2 + 2 = 1, prove that
1

( + + ) = 2 (2 + 2 + 2 ) .

Proof. Again, note that is invariant under change of coordinate of rotation about
the origin. We can find a transformation (rotation) that maps (, , ) to
(0,0, 2 + 2 + 2 ).
Thus

( + + ) = ((, , ) ()) = ((0,0, 2 + 2 + 2 ) ())

= (2 + 2 + 2 )

Consider the parameterization
