I have a voluntary hand in I am working on, and in that rigard
I need to draw the following figure in Maple.
The area $ \displaystyle \iint_R \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}} \mathrm{d}A $
where $R$ is the area where $x>0$ below $3 + \sqrt{9-x^2}$ and above $y=x/3+2$
I have been able to draw the base of the figure in maple (image), but I am not able to draw it in 3d.
I have been able to transform the integral into polar coordinates, but is this easier to draw? Eg
$$\int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/2} \int_{r_2}^{r_1} \cos \theta \, r \, \mathrm{d}r\mathrm{d}\theta$$
Where $y=3+\sqrt{9-x^2} \ \Leftrightarrow \ r_1 = 6 \sin \theta \ $ and $ \ y = x/3 + 2 \ \Leftrightarrow \ r_2 = \cfrac{6}{3\sin\theta – \cos\theta}$
So yeah, any help in drawing this area in maple is greatly appreciated =)
