Theorem: (Line integral over piecewise smooth curves) Suppose C is a piecewise smooth curve, that is C is a union of finite number of smooth curves, C1,C2,...,Cn, joined end-to-end (that is the initial point of Ci+1 is the terminal point of Ci), and f is continuous in D ⊂ R2containing C, then the integral of f along C is defined as Z Z Z Z f (x,y)ds = f (x,y)ds + f (x,y)ds + ... + f (x,y)ds.
