↗

The real domain of the function y=9−x2y=\sqrt{9-x^2} is the closed interval [−3,3][-3, 3]. This restriction exists because, over the real numbers, the expression inside a square root (the radicand) must be nonnegative for the principal square root to be real-valued.

Conditions: Real-valued interpretation of the square root.; Using the principal square root convention.; The radicand is 9−x29 - x^2.

The exact value of the definite integral ∫−339−x2 dx\int_{-3}^{3} \sqrt{9-x^2}\,dx is 9π2\frac{9\pi}{2}. This is derived by interpreting the integral as the geometric area of the upper semicircle of a circle with radius 3.

Conditions: Interpret the integral as area under the graph on [−3,3][-3,3].; Recognize the graph as the upper semicircle of radius 3.; Exact equality for the displayed definite integral.
