Suppose F⃗ (x, y)=(x+3)i⃗ +(6y+3)j⃗ . Use the fundamental theorem of line integrals to calculate the following. (a) The line integral of F⃗ along the line segment C from the point P=(1,0) to the point Q=(3,3).
∫CF⃗ ⋅dr⃗ =?

(b) The line integral of F⃗ along the triangle C from the origin to the point P=(1,0) to the point Q=(3,3) and back to the origin.
∫CF⃗ ⋅dr⃗ =?

In order to use the fundamental theorem of line integrals, you need to find a scalar potential function - that is, a scalar function f(x, y) for which

grad f(x, y) = F(x, y)

This amounts to solving for f such that

∂f/dx = x + 3

∂f/∂y = 6y + 3

Integrating both sides of the first equation with respect to x gives

f = 1/2 x ^2 + 3x + g(y)

Differentiating with respect to y gives

∂f/∂y = dg/dy = 6y + 3

Solving for g gives

g = ∫ (6y + 3) dy = 3y ^2 + 3y + C

and hence

f(x, y) = 1/2 x ^2 + 3x + 3y ^2 + 3y + C

(a) By the fundamental theorem, the integral of F along any path starting at the point P (1, 0) and ending at Q (3, 3) is

∫ F(x, y) • dr = f (3, 3) - f (1, 0) = 99/2 - 7/2 = 46

(b) Now we're talking about a closed path, so the integral is simply 0. We can verify this by checking the integral over the origin-containing paths:

• From the origin to P :

∫ F(x, y) • dr = f (1, 0) - f (0, 0) = 7/2 - 0 = 7/2

• From Q back to the origin:

∫ F(x, y) • dr = f (0, 0) - f (3, 3) = 0 - 99/2 = -99/2

Then the total integral is 7/2 + 46 - 99/2 = 0, as expected.
