Green's theorem can be used to compute area by line integral. The area of D is given by:

Provided we choose L and M such that:

Then the area is given by:

Possible formulas for the area of D include:

Famous quotes containing the words area and/or calculation:

    ... nothing is more human than substituting the quantity of words and actions for their character. But using imprecise words is very similar to using lots of words, for the more imprecise a word is, the greater the area it covers.

    “And yours,” said the P.B.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
