i just finished an exercise with a double integral like 3<=x.^2+y.^2<=5 while x>=0 and y>=0. the function was: exp(-x.^2-y.^2)dxdy and now im doing this problem...I finished my 2nd semester and i have done my matlab courses and seminars with 9 xD

im looking to improve my self cuz i see a lot of potential in this program but idk from where to begin...what i have done at school is not enough. this is what i did http://www.apar.pub.ro/informatica_aplicata_2/laborator/ all 5 labs

The integral(xdy+ydx) is equivalent to integral(1*d(x*y)). If the integral lower limit is x*y = 0*0 and the upper limit x*y = 1*1, then the integral must have a value of 1. It has nothing to do with being on the curve y = sqrt(x) except for the two endpoints.

so i don't need the equation to solve it?

Well, I have the impression that your instructor intends for you to solve those three integrals independently and then notice that your answer in each case is the same. For example, with ϒ1 you can calculate
y = sqrt(x)
dy = (1/2)/sqrt(x)*dx
x*dy+y*dx = x*(1/2)/sqrt(x)*dx + sqrt(x)*dx = 3/2*sqrt(x)*dx
x*dy+y*dx = 3/2*sqrt(x)*dx = 3/2*x^(3/2)/(3/2) = x^(3/2)
Hence the definite integral is 1^(3/2)-0^(3/2) = 1. This is the same as x*y at (1,1) minus x*y at (0,0), namely 1.
The same kind of computation can be done with ϒ2 and ϒ3 (I assume they intended for the ϒ3 case to be a straight line from point O to point A.)
So, in answer to your question, I would say that actually you do need the equations in order to demonstrate to your instructor’s satisfaction that ∫ x*dy+y*dx does depend only on the difference of x*y at the two endpoints of your curve. (I’ve done one-third of your home work for you. I won’t tell if you don’t.)

Hi
.
.
2.- eq [2] you want to integrate a vector function F along a path or line.
F = [F1 , F2, F3] = [y , x, 0]
.
3.- eq [5] is possible because the curl of F is 0, just solve the following (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curl_(mathematics) ) manually:
4.- So, the potential function you need to solve the integral is
phi = -[x*y , x*y, k]
5.- So, the integral of the field [y,x,0] along the arcul/arc/path/line (call it whatever you like it) y=x^.5 from point O [0 0] to point A [1 1] is the difference of potential
phi(O)-phi(A) = -phi(A)
and you get the same result whether you follow the previous arcul
[x x^.5]
or following
[x x^2]
