Well for sec^3 x, you use d/dx tan x = sec^2 x, so let dv = sec^2 x dx
Anyway I'm not clear on how you figured out the limits, I'd go about it something like
#1 really should be easier with x,y coordinates - putting it in as written in Wolfram Alpha gives 54, it's just a matter of doing the integral correctly I think. (antiderivative of x+y with respect to y is xy+1/2y^2 | y=x/2 to 3-x, which should give you a polynomial of x)
#2 I would also not do with polar coordinates unless you have to.

which doesn't match up with what you got. That has the integral
