1. Homework Statement
Integrate h(x,y)=yi - xj over the triangle with vertices (-2,0), (2,0), (0,2) tranversed counterclockwise
2. Homework Equations
(1-t)a+tb
3. The Attempt at a Solution
(1-t)(-2,0)+t(2,0)=(-2+4t,0)
(1-t)(2,0)+t(0,2)=(2-2t,2t)
(1-t)(0,2)+t(-2,0)=(-2t,2-2t)
integral y-x
integral (0)-(-2+4t)*4 from 0 to 1 = 0
integral (2t)*2-(2-2t)*-2 from 0 to 1 = 4
integral (2-2t)*-2-(-2t)*-2 from 0 to 1 = -4
0+4+-4=0
I don't get the right answer, the correct answer is -8
