Study Guide Overview

This study guide covers the disc method for finding volumes of solids of revolution. It focuses on rotations around axes parallel to the x-axis and y-axis. Key topics include setting up integrals using $(y-k)^2$ or $(x-k)^2$ , rewriting equations, and applying the method through worked examples. Practice questions, a glossary, and exam strategies are also provided.
