The negative simply indicates that the
area has been swept from right to left,
rather than left to right, and so may be
ignored. The area enclosed by the curve is
3 π.

- The acceleration vector for an object
moving in the plane is〈−et,et〉. Find the
position of the object att=1, if the initial
velocity isv 0 =
〈

〉
and the initial
position of the object is at the origin.
