Jacobian in three variables to change variables

Given a region defined in uvw-space, we can use a Jacobian transformation to redefine it in xyz-space, or vice versa. We’ll use a 3x3 determinant formula to calculate the Jacobian.

Like cartesian (or rectangular) coordinates and polar coordinates, cylindrical coordinates are just another way to describe points in three-dimensional space. Cylindrical coordinates are exactly the same as polar coordinates, just in three-dimensional space instead of two-dimensional space.
