Evaluate integral C ( x 2 + y 2 ) d x + 2 x y d y , where C is the curve that follows parabola y = x 2 from ( 0 , 0 ) ( 2 , 4 ) , then the line from (2, 4) to (2, 0), and finally the line from (2, 0) to (0, 0).

A vector field in quadrant 1. The arrows are much smaller closer to the origin. They point up and away from the origin, with increasing slope the further they are to the right. The curve follows the parabola y=x^2 from the origin to (2,4), the line from (2,4) to (2,0), and the line from (2,0) to (0,0). The area under y=2x and above the parabola is shaded.

C ( x 2 + y 2 ) d x + 2 x y d y = 0

Evaluate line integral C ( y sin ( y ) cos ( y ) ) d x + 2 x sin 2 ( y ) d y , where C is oriented in a counterclockwise path around the region bounded by x = −1 , x = 2 , y = 4 x 2 , and y = x 2 .

A vector field in two dimensions. The arrows are smaller the closer they are to the origin, particular vertically. Curve C follows a counterclockwise path around the region bounded by x=-1, x=2, y = 4-x^2, and y = x-2. The region is shaded.
