Solids Formed From Certain Cross Sections
This applet illustrates solids formed by "prism stacking".
Various possible cross-sections are shown to the left. Select any one you'd like.
f = greater (upper) function
g = lesser (lower) function
n = number of equal intervals into which the interval [a, b] is divided.
Note: Cross sections are drawn parallel to the y-axis.
Enjoy!
