Understanding Green's Theorem

This video tutorial explains how to use Green's Theorem to evaluate a line integral along a curve. It covers the theorem's conditions, such as simply connected curves with positive orientation, and demonstrates the application through a specific example involving a rectangle. The tutorial walks through the process of finding partial derivatives and setting up the double integral, ultimately solving the integral step-by-step.
