Homework Statement



Find the area of the part of the surface z^2 = 2*x*y that lies above the xy plane and is bounded by the planes x=0, x=2 and y=0, y=1.

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


z = Sqrt[2*x*y]
Sqrt[(partial z/partial x)^2 + (partial z/partial y)^2 +1] =
(Sqrt[2/(x*y)] * (x+y))/2
So Integrate over that but I can't figure out the bounds for this double integral.
Thank You

The boundary is a nice, neat box, so you would just integrate z over 0 <= x <= 2, 0 <= y <= 1.
 
Ok I see. Thank You
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
