Question about the angle θ Green's theorem
Given Q ( x , y ) = x y 2 + y ln ( x + x 2 + y 2 ) and P ( x , y ) = x 2 + y 2 calculate the integral C P d x + Q d y while C = ( x 1 ) 2 + ( y 1 ) 2 = 1

Step 1
You need to rotate by 2 π to make a complete rotation about the circle.
Step 2
I assume you were thinking 0 < θ < π 2 made sense because the circle is only located within the first quadrant, but with the equations for x and y that you gave in terms of r , θ, you should be able to see that the center is (1,1) and you need to make a full rotation to trace the circle around this center. Imagine drawing the unit circle and then translating it 1 unit in the positive x direction and 1 unit in the positive y direction.

Step 1
If you have x = 1 + r cos θ and y = 1 + r sin θ then you need to consider the angle around point (1,1), not around point (0,0).
Step 2
Since C is the full circle around point (1,1), you need all angles 0 θ 2 π.
