    ❗️ERROR❗️: At 6:41, the dx & dy equations should be:
    dx = (∂x/∂r)dr + (∂x/∂θ )dθ,
    dy = (∂y/∂r)dr + (∂y/∂θ )dθ,
    accidentally swapped them around in the calculations but the Jacobian remains correct :)

    Very good explanation indeed!
    I believe you snuck in a slight inaccuracy in your calculations. When doing the u-substitution the limit for the new integral should be 0 -> MINUS infinity, but since you perform back-substitution afterwards and preserve the limits of r, the result remains correct.

    at 11:38 when u did the u-sub, the "infinity" in the bound of integration should be a negative infinity, if i'm not mistaken. It doesn't affect the answer, though, since you went back to the "r" world.

    2) Prove Euler's Identity - relationship between e, pi, I, 1, 0.

    I didn't understand how you filled in the limits after substitution, why does theta goes from 0 to 2pi and r from 0 to infinity. Also didn't get how the double integral is solved? you just wrote 2pi for integral o to 2pi d(theta) ig. but how is it just simply multiplied ?? don't we have to first solve the inner integral first and then the outer one? I guess, it doesn't change the result since r and theta are independent so it is just like multiplying a constant but am I correct about what I said about solving double integrals ??

      Taking an area under a curve doesn’t change with the variable you use to represent the function as long as you integrate with respect to that variable. It is useful to change one to a y so you can do the polar substitution

    Ive never learned the matrix method or partial derivatives. So i was forced to use geometry. Going from cartisian to polar, I said the radius acts like x on the cartisian and is linear so x is related to r. No matter what theta is, the radius,r, moves from the origin and extends out linearly also in the polar world, so x=r and dx=dr. For y, in cartisian is also linear, but polar it will be curving. I used arc length s=r*theta. And take any 2 sectors on a polar graph, the radius doesnt change, but theta does. So dS=r *dtheta which is related to dy because the angle is what turns the radius on a polar graph. So, dy=dS=rdtheta.
    Geometrically/graphically, picture a rectangle on cartisian, its dementions would be dx*dy as it get smaller. In the polar world, i see a curved 'rectangle' in polar form. So as r2 approaches r1 at the base of the rectangle, you can see the dx=dr transformation and is independent of the angle theta. For y, or S, r1 needs theta to move to another point, so theta is changing, same reasoning for r2 to move. As s2 approaches s1, the angle and r get smaller, but the only way to rotate is due to theta, and the radius does not depend on theta at all to do this. So we can see dS=rdthetha as the 2 sectors get closer. Then apply the identity for x squared and y squared =r squares for a circle.
    So at the end i get r(e^-r^2)drdthetha. The inner integral goes from 0 to infinity(the smallest radius of a circle becomes a point at 0) and the outer integral from 0 to 2pi for 1 complete revolution for theta. I got the I=sqrt(pi)
    No clue what a jacobian is 😢

    • @epicchocolate1866
      @epicchocolate1866 Před 6 měsíci

      The matrix is the Jacobian matrix which is essentially a scaling factor. What you are doing, is converting to polar coordinates to simplify, but the mathematical theorems require thag you scale the integral by |J(T)| where T is the transformation from polar coordinates to rectangular coordinates
