This guide covers calculating areas using multiple integrals and absolute values. It addresses areas partly above/below the x-axis and between two curves. Key concepts include splitting integrals at intersection points and using the absolute value of the function or the difference of functions. The guide also includes practice questions, a glossary, exam strategies, and real-world applications.

Question 1 of 10
What is the first step when finding the total area between a curve and the x-axis, where the curve is partly above and partly below the x-axis? 🤔
Integrate the function directly over the given interval
Find the x-intercepts of the curve
Integrate the absolute value of the function directly
Take the derivative of the function
