Table 6.2.6(c) Task-template for integrating over a triangle
|
|
|
The astute observer will note that each iterated integral produced by the task template is preceded by a minus sign. This is because Maple does not rearrange the limits of integration so that the upper edge in the triangle becomes the upper limit of integration. However, the equations for the edges are the same as listed in Table 6.2.6(a), the advantage being that the only input to the task template is the set of three vertices. Maple determines the equations of the edges and sets up the iterated integral(s).
