Detailed Outline

1. Length of Curve (Arc Length)

Concept: The length of a curve is found by integrating the arc length differential.
Formulas to memorize:
- When integrating with respect to (x): [ l = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} \sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2} \, dx ]
- When integrating with respect to (y): [ l = \int_{y_1}^{y_2} \sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dx}{dy}\right)^2} \, dy ]
- For parametric equations ( x = x(t), y = y(t) ): [ l = \int_{t_1}^{t_2} \sqrt{\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right)^2} \, dt ]

2. Surface Area of Solids of Revolution

Concept: Surface area generated by rotating a curve about an axis.
Formulas to memorize:
- Rotation about the x-axis: [ \text{Surface Area} = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} 2\pi y \sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2} \, dx ]
- Rotation about the y-axis: [ \text{Surface Area} = \int_{y_1}^{y_2} 2\pi x \sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dx}{dy}\right)^2} \, dy ]
- Parametric form ( x = x(t), y = y(t) ): [ \text{Surface Area} = \int_{t_1}^{t_2} 2\pi y \sqrt{\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right)^2} \, dt ]
Special case: Surface area of a sphere Given ( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 ) or parametric form ( x = a \cos \theta, y = a \sin \theta ), the surface area is: [ 4 \pi a^2 ] (whether rotated about x-axis or y-axis) Memorize this for quick application.

3. Volume of Solids of Revolution

Concept: Volume generated by rotating a curve about an axis.
Formulas to memorize:
- Rotation about the x-axis: [ V = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} \pi y^2 \, dx ]
- Rotation about the y-axis: [ V = \int_{y_1}^{y_2} \pi x^2 \, dy ]
- Polar form ( r = r(\theta) ): [ V = \frac{2\pi}{3} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} r^3 \sin \theta \, d\theta ]
Special cases:
- Volume of sphere (circle rotated about x or y axis): [ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi a^3 ]
- Volume of cardioid ( r = a(1 \pm \cos \theta) ): [ V = \frac{8}{3} \pi a^3 ]
- Ellipse rotated about major or minor axis:
  - About major axis (x-axis): [ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi a b^2 ]
  - About minor axis (y-axis): [ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi a^2 b ]
  - Ratio of volumes: [ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{b}{a} ]

4. Important Examples and Problem Solving

Circle and Sphere:
- Equation: ( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 )
- Parametric: ( x = a \cos \theta, y = a \sin \theta )
- Surface area and volume formulas applied directly.
Cardioid:
- Two types: ( r = a(1 + \cos \theta) ) and ( r = a(1 - \cos \theta) )
- Volume formula given and explained with integration steps.
Asteroid:
- Equation: ( x^{2/3} + y^{2/3} = a^{2/3} )
- Parametric form: ( x = a \cos^3 \theta, y = a \sin^3 \theta )
- Arc length calculated using parametric arc length formula.
Ellipse:
- Volume when rotated about major and minor axes.
Straight line rotation:
- Rotation of line joining points ( (0,0) ) and ( (b,a) ) about y-axis forms a cone.
- Surface area found using ( \pi r l ), where ( l = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} ).

5. Methodology and Tips

Always start by writing the heading: Length of Curve, Surface Area, or Volume.
Identify the axis of rotation (x-axis, y-axis, initial line, vertical line).
Use the correct formula based on the axis and form of the curve (Cartesian, parametric, polar).
For parametric or polar forms, use the specialized formulas.
Draw a diagram to understand limits and the portion of the curve involved.
For spheres and cardioids, memorize the direct formulas to save time.
When integrating, carefully apply limits and simplify expressions using trigonometric identities.
For surface area and volume of solids of revolution, remember the geometric interpretation (e.g., rotating the upper half of a circle forms a sphere).
Practice quick recognition of standard curves and their formulas for exams like TGT and PGT.
The instructor emphasizes memorization and direct application of formulas for efficiency.
