Line Integral of Clockwise Circle

Considering the circle $x^2+y^2=9$ going in the clockwise direction, I am evaluating the line integral $int_{C}$ $Fdr$ from $(3,0)$ to $(0,3$). I have parametrization $x=3cost$ and $y=3sint$ and I had a question on the limits of integration, as it is 3/4 of a circle and traveling clockwise. I don't think it is from 0 to $pi$$/2$ considering the orientation. Any help is appreciated.

Then your limits are $0$ and $-{3pi over 2}$ as following$$int_CFcdot rdthetahat a_theta=int_{0}^{-{3pi over 2}}3F_theta(r,theta) dtheta$$

Alternatively,
$$ int_C F ,mathrm dr = -int_{-C} F , mathrm dr, $$
where $-C$ is traversed in the anti-clockwise direction.

For clockwise, you want $y = -3sin(t)$
