This week, we learned all about the shell method. I personally learned about how horrible I am at drawing solids of revolution. I just can't do it. I think I understand all of the concepts fairly well, however there is still a little bit of confusion as to which method I should use when. I'm not really sure about when to use the shell method versus the washer method. If we could go over that one more time in class before we take the quiz that would be great. I'll leave you with my attempt at drawing a solid of revolution. As you can see, it's not very good.
