On the first segment, parameterize

r_{1} (t) = (t, t, 0)^{T}

0 \leq t \leq 1

r_{1}^{'} = (1, 1, 0)^{T}

are

F (r_{1}) \cdot r_{1}^{'} = 2 t, G (r_{1}) \cdot r_{1}^{'} = 2 t cos (t^{2}) .

Their line integrals are one and

sin 1

, respectively.

On the second segment take

r_{2} (t) = (1, 1, t)^{T}

(0, 0, 1)^{T}

. The corresponding integrands are

a - 2 + 2 t

and

c

, whose integrals are

a - 1

and

c

. Adding the segments yields

\int_{C_{1}} F \cdot d r = a, \int_{C_{1}} G \cdot d r = sin 1 + c .
