Excerpt from the Book
Verify Green’s theorem for ∮ C (x2y + x2)dx + (2xy - 4)dy where C is the boundary of the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (4, 0) and (0, 8) in CCW direction.
Let P = x2y + x2 and Q = 2xy - 4 ⟹ ∂P/∂y = x2 and ∂Q/∂x = 2y
Thus, by Green’s theorem for; dA = dydx, 0 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ -2x + 8
∮C (x2y + x2)dx + (2xy - 4)dy = ∬D (∂Q/∂x - ∂P/∂y)dA
∮C (x2y + x2)dx + (2xy - 4)dy = ∫04 ∫0-2x+8 (2y - x2)dydx
∫04 (y2 - x2y)0-2x+8 dx = ∫04 (2x3 - 4x2 - 32x + 64)dx = 128/3
∮C (x2y + x2)dx + (2xy - 4)dy = ∬D (∂Q/∂x - ∂P/∂y)dA = 128/3
