2. (Chapter 17, Section 19.1)
Consider the intersection R between the two circles $$x^2 + y^2 = 2$$ and $$(x - 2)^2 + y^2 = 2$$.

(a) Find a 2-dimensional vector field $$F = (M(x, y), N(x, y))$$ such that
$$\frac{\partial N}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial M}{\partial y} = 1$$.
(3)
(b) Using this F and Green's theorem (Theorem 19.1.1), write the area integral $$\iint_R 1 dA$$ as a line integral.
[Hint: Any function $$y = f(x)$$ can be parametrised by $$r(t) = (t, f(t))$$. This can be used to parametrise the lines].
(4)
(c) Using this line integral, find the area of R.
