Question 2

Let $ \alpha = 2xydx - y^2dy$.
Calculate the line integral of $ \alpha$ around the closed curve going first from the point $ A = [4, 0]$ to the point $ B = [0, 4]$ along the straight line $ AB$ and then back to $ A$ along the shorter arc $ BA$ of the circle, with center the origin, that passes through $ A$ and $ B$.
