How do I find
J := [tex]\int\int_U y cos(x + y) dA[/tex]
where U = {(x,y) [tex]\in[/tex] R2 : 0 [tex]\leq[/tex] x [tex]\leq[/tex] 2, 1-x [tex]\leq[/tex] x [tex]\leq[/tex] -2 + 2x}.

I drew the picture & i get 2 triangles but not sure what to do with them. Help please.

I think you should only be getting one triangle. Try checking your picture against one generated by a graphing tool.

Cheers,

Very true. I got a triangle & J = -0.5717341110 using maple.
