Double integral with substitution

In summary, The integral \int\int_{B}x^{2}+2y dxdy where B=\{(x, y) | x^{2}+y^{2}≤4\} can be evaluated using polar coordinates and Fubini's theorem. The correct solution is 4\pi, and the mistake in the previous attempt was not squaring the cosine term.

Homework Statement


Evaluate (using a substitution) [itex]\int\int_{B}x^{2}+2y dxdy[/itex] where [itex]B=\{(x, y) | x^{2}+y^{2}≤4\}[/itex]

The Attempt at a Solution


I attempted a solution using polar coordinates, so the integral becomes [itex]\int\int_{B_{ρθ}}(ρ^{2}cos^{2}(θ)+2ρsin(θ)) ρ dρdθ[/itex], and the integration intervals are [itex]0≤ρ≤2, 0≤θ≤\pi[/itex]. Solving it using Fubini's thorem my result was [itex]\frac{32}{3}[/itex], but the solution given by the book is [itex]4\pi[/itex].

Where did I go wrong?
Thanks

Your polar coordinate setup is right, except you want the upper limit to be 2pi. But the answer is completely wrong. How did that happen? Can you show us?

Indeed it is 2pi, my mistake. I'll attempt a solution again, and if I don't get it i'll show it
Thank you

Done, I did forget the square in the cosine hehe, many thanks
