$iint e^{x-y}$ over the triangle with vertices at $(0,0),(1,3),(2,2)$

$displaystyleiint e^{x-y}$ over the triangle with vertices at $(0,0),(1,3),(2,2)$
I tried the following change of variables. let $u=x-y$, $v=3x-y$. In $(u,v)$, we get the triangle with vertices at $(0,0),(-2,0),(0,4)$.The Jacobian i calculated is $1/2$. I tried integrating $(1/2)displaystyleiint e^u$ over this new region and got $2/e^2$. The answer provided $1+1/e^2$, I'm not too sure why my change of variables is not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • For such simple form of the integrand, changing variables is not necessary. Drawing a sketch of the region is enough to find the limits of integration.

First of all, I assume you mean the region $R$ enclosed by the triangle, not the triangle itself. Otherwise the integral is just zero.



Instead of bothering with Jacobians, which I personally find super annoying, it may be best simply to break it up into two pieces. Thus we have
$$iintlimits_R e^{x-y};dA=int_0^1int_x^{3x}e^{x-y};dy;dx+int_1^2int_x^{4-x}e^{x-y};dy;dx$$
$$=left(frac{1}{2}+frac{1}{2e^2}right)+left(frac{1}{2}+frac{1}{2e^2}right)=1+frac{1}{e^2}.$$
