Volume of intersection of cylinders using polar coordinates
$begingroup$
Use a double integral to find the volume of the solid bounded by two surfaces $$x^2+y^2=4,$$ and $$x^2+z^2=4.$$
is it using one way to integrate or there is using separation way?

you don't need calculus to solve this problem, see this answer for a related question.

if i want to use the integral way to solve it, can you give me some hint ?

You can translate above answer to a triple integral and then integrate over $y$ and $z$ first... i.e. $$int_{-2}^2 left[ int_{-sqrt{4-x^2}}^{sqrt{4-x^2}} int_{-sqrt{4-x^2}}^{sqrt{4-x^2}} dy dz right] dx$$

can i use polar coordinates to do it ? will it be easier to solve right?

You can use polar coordinates but it will be a bad choice for this particular problem. The integral over $y$ and $z$ above give you 4(4-x^2), integrating a polynomial is much simpler than integrating any trigonometric function.
