Note:
1. Limits of Outer Integral are always constant
2. Limits of Inner Integral are constant or function of only one variable (either x or y)

a h1 ( x )
Step (ii) : Integrate the result obtained in step (i) with respect to x
Here order of integration is first w.r.t y and then w.r.t. x (YX order)
Note that order of integration is decided by the limits of inner integral and not by dxdy
or dydx

For Example: Evaluate xydxdy

Solution: Note that upper limit of inner integral is function of x . Therefore, order of
integration is first w.r.t y and then w.r.t. x .

Now focus on what’s inside the parentheses. For the moment, you can ignore the rest.
Your integration variable is y, so treat the variable x as a constant, moving it outside the

Working Rule: To Change Order of Integration of the Type xa y h( x) f ( x, y)dxdy
1. Using given limits, draw the region of integration.
In this case, order is YX. Thus, initially strip is parallel to Y axis.
Lower limit of inner integral is y h ( x ) lower end of strip is touching the
curve y h( x )
Upper limit of inner integral is y k ( x) Upper end of strip is touching the
curve y k ( x )
Limits of outer integral is from x a to x b Strip moves from x a to x b .
Using this information draw the region.
2. Change the direction of strip in the region drawn. In this case, now we consider
a strip parallel to X axis. Thus, order of integration is XY.

Upper limit of inner integral is x 1 y 2 . That is, x 2 y 2 1 . This is a circle having centre
at 0, 0 and radius =1.
Initially, strip is parallel to X axis, whose left end touches the Y axis and right end touches
the circle x 2 y 2 1 . This strip moves from lower to upper end from y 0 to y 1 . Thus,
region of integration is first quadrant of the circle x 2 y 2 1
