Volumes of Solids of Revolution Comparing Methods Disks & WashersCylindrical Shells Cross-section: Perpendicular to the line of rotation. Cross-section: Parallel to the line of rotation. r is the length of the cross- section in terms of x or y. Rotate about the x-axis: Rotate about the y-axis: h is the length of the cross- section in terms of x or y. Rotate about the x-axis: Rotate about the y-axis:
