Line integral in proof of Green's theorem
$begingroup$
In wikipedia page about Green's theorem the following equality appears:
$$
int_{C_1} L(x,y), dx = int_a^b L(x,g_1(x)), dx
$$
I do not understand it. Wikipedia page about line integral defines line integral, when applied to an scalar function, as:
$$
int_{mathcal{C}} f(mathbf{r}), ds = int_a^b fleft(mathbf{r}(t)right)|mathbf{r}'(t)| , dt.
$$
that, applied to the proof expression and taken into account that the curve $C_1$ has been parametrized as $(x,g_1(x))$, gives (?):
$$
int_{C_1} L(x,y), dx = int_a^b L(x,g_1(x)) ,, |(1,g_1'(x)| ,, dx
$$
that seems different to the one said in the proof (all curve derivative term has been supresed).

Note that one integral is a $ds$ integral and the other integral is a $dx$ integral. Here, Green's Theorem is written in the $int L,dx+M,dy$ form.
