Solution

Green's Theorem states that for a positively oriented, simple closed curve CC enclosing a region DD, the line integral around CC can be converted into a double integral over DD:

C(Mdx+Ndy)=D(NxMy)dA\oint_C \left( M \, dx + N \, dy \right) = \iint_D \left( \frac{\partial N}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial M}{\partial y} \right) \, dA

Given the line integral:

C(4y+x)dx+(y+x)dy\oint_C (4y + x) \, dx + (y + x) \, dy

we identify M=4y+xM = 4y + x and N=y+xN = y + x. We need to find Nx\frac{\partial N}{\partial x} and My\frac{\partial M}{\partial y}.

  1. Calculate Nx\frac{\partial N}{\partial x}: Nx=(y+x)x=1\frac{\partial N}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial (y + x)}{\partial x} = 1

  2. Calculate My\frac{\partial M}{\partial y}: My=(4y+x)y=4\frac{\partial M}{\partial y} = \frac{\partial (4y + x)}{\partial y} = 4

  3. Now, compute NxMy\frac{\partial N}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial M}{\partial y}: NxMy=14=3\frac{\partial N}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial M}{\partial y} = 1 - 4 = -3

  4. Using Green's Theorem, the integral becomes: C(4y+x)dx+(y+x)dy=D(3)dA\oint_C (4y + x) \, dx + (y + x) \, dy = \iint_D (-3) \, dA

  5. The region DD is the interior of the circle (x6)2+(y6)2=4(x - 6)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 4. This is a circle with center (6,6)(6, 6) and radius 22.

The area AA of the circle is: A=πr2=π22=4πA = \pi r^2 = \pi \cdot 2^2 = 4\pi

  1. Therefore, the double integral over the region DD is: D(3)dA=3×Area of D=3×4π=12π\iint_D (-3) \, dA = -3 \times \text{Area of } D = -3 \times 4\pi = -12\pi

Thus, the value of the given line integral is:

C(4y+x)dx+(y+x)dy=12π\oint_C (4y + x) \, dx + (y + x) \, dy = -12\pi
