I am having trouble understanding #4e from todays worksheet: "Let $D$ denote the set in $\mathbb{R^3}$ lying above the cone $z=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$ and below the plane $z=4$. Set up the following integrals over $D$ as iterated integrals in cylindrical coordinates. You should think about which ones you can evaluate. (e) An integral representing the volume of $D$."
What is the significance of setting up an integral representing the volume of $D$?

The volume function will be set as 1, as far as the significance, this is showing how you can find the volume under the curves between the two limits using the terms of integration. You end up with a pretty simple integral to solve, and as soon as I get to a computer I will type up what we came up with as a group today in class, too hard from a phone! Sorry!
