Volume of Solid of Revolution (Glass)
$begingroup$
We are given $y^2/a^2-x^2/b^2=1$, $y>0$ . If we rotate the hyperbola around the $y$ axis the shape is similar to a glass.
What will the volume of water inside the glass be, in order to fill the glass up to $y=A$, $A>a$?
Following the given hint I found
$$x=b*(y^2/a^2-1)^{1/2}.$$

Start by drawing a picture of the hyperbola. See where you have the intersection with $y=A$.

The green axis in your picture is the $y$ axis. You can calculate the volume in two ways: disks or shells.
The disks are perpendicular to the $y$ axis, have a thickness $dy$ and the radius is equal to $x$ at a given $y$. In this case your integration variable is $y$. So the volume of the disk is $pi x^2 dy=b^2(y^2/a^2-1) dy$. You know the minimum $y$ is $a$, and the maximum is $A$.
The shell method means that you need to have cylindrical shells, with the axis parallel to the $y$ axis. The radius of the cylinder is $x$, the thickness is $dx$. The volume of the shell is then $2pi x h(x)mathrm dx$, where $h(x)$ is the height of the shell. The "bottom" of the shell starts at $y=asqrt{x^2/b^2+1}$, and the "top" is at $y=A$, so $h(x)=A-asqrt{x^2/b^2+1}$ The integration range starts from $0$ and goes on until the height is $0$, or $y(x)=A$.
$$frac{A^2}{a^2}-frac{x_{max}^2}{b^2}=1$$
You can now get the upper limit of $x$ from the above equation.

I do the problem in cylindrical coordinates as follows:
Converting the equation of hyperbola to hyperboloid around $z$ can be simply done by replacing $yto z$ and $xto r$ as: $$frac{z^2}{a^2}-frac{r^2}{b^2}=1$$
(I figured this by reconciling $r$ with $x$ in the $x-z$ plane)
Now the integral becomes terribly simple:
$$int_0^{2pi}int_a^Aint_0^{sqrt{b^2(frac{z^2}{a^2}-1)}} rdrdzdtheta=pi b^2int_a^ABigg(frac{z^2}{a^2}-1Bigg)dz=pi b^2Bigg(frac{(A^3-a^3)}{3a^2}-(A-a)Bigg)$$

So in your drawing you show that you are almost near to find the good start.
Take half of the trapezoidal stripe you indicated, going from the y axis to the hyperbola.
Its width is $dy$, one base is $x(y)$ and the other $x(y+dy)=x(y)+x'(y)dy$.
When you rotate it by $2pi$ you get a conic frustum of height $dy$ and volume $pi x(y)^2 dy$ because you know that higher order infinitesimal can be waived.
Then just integrate the above along $y$, between the bounds you need.

The "bottom" of the shell starts at $y=asqrt{x^2/b^2+1}$, and the "top" is at $y=A$, so $h(x)=A-asqrt{x^2/b^2+1}$ The integration range starts from $0$ and goes on until the height is $0$, or $y(x)=A$.
$$frac{A^2}{a^2}-frac{x_{max}^2}{b^2}=1$$
You can now get the upper limit of $x$ from the above equation.

So in your drawing you show that you are almost near to find the good start.
Take half of the trapezoidal stripe you indicated, going from the y axis to the hyperbola.
Its width is $dy$, one base is $x(y)$ and the other $x(y+dy)=x(y)+x'(y)dy$.
When you rotate it by $2pi$ you get a conic frustum of height $dy$ and volume $pi x(y)^2 dy$ because you know that higher order infinitesimal can be waived.
Then just integrate the above along $y$, between the bounds you need.
