In class, we showed that for v = x^2 i + x y^2 j, the
line integral integral of v_T with respect to arclength
counterclockwise around the triangle with vertices (0,0), (1,0), and (1,1)
is integral(v_T ds) = integral(x^2 dx + x y^2 dy) = 1/12.
(We actually integrated along two different curves; put
these results together to get the
answer for integrating the whole way around the triangle!)
Use Green's theroem to verify this result by doing a double
integral over the triangle.
