Let S be the surface of the box enclosed by the planes \(x=\pm 1\), \(y=\pm 1, \ z=\pm 1\). Approximate \(\iint_{\mathrm{s}} \cos (x+2 y+3 z) \ d S\) by using a Riemann sum as in Definition 1, taking the patches \(S_{i j}\) to be the squares that are the faces of the box S and the points \(P_{i j}^{*}\) to be the centers of the squares.

Question
A surface \(S\) consists of the cylinder \(x^{2}+y^{2}=1,-1 \leqslant z \leqslant 1\), together with its top and bottom disks. Suppose you know that \(f\) is a continuous function with
\(f(\pm 1,0,0)=2 \quad f(0, \pm 1,0)=3 \quad f(0,0, \pm 1)=4\)
Estimate the value of \(\iint_{s} f(x, y, z) d S\) by using a Riemann sum, taking the patches \(S_{i j}\) to be four quarter-cylinders and the top and bottom disks.
Solution
The first step in solving 16.7 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A surface \(S\) consists of the cylinder \(x^{2}+y^{2}=1,-1 \leqslant z \leqslant 1\), together with its top and bottom disks. Suppose you know that \(f\) is a continuous function with \(f(\pm 1,0,0)=2 \quad f(0, \pm 1,0)=3 \quad f(0,0, \pm 1)=4\)Estimate the value of \(\iint_{s} f(x, y, z) d S\) by using a Riemann sum, taking the patches \(S_{i j}\) to be four quarter-cylinders and the top and bottom disks.
From the textbook chapter Surface Integrals you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
