1 to 2 , Isobaric process
2 to 3, Isochoric process
3 to 1, Isothermal process

Using work under isobaric, isochoric and isothermal processes respectively:

$W = {W}_{1 \to 2} + {W}_{2 \to 3} + {W}_{3 \to 1}W = ( ( - P ( {V}_{2} - {V}_{1} ) + 0 + ( - {P}_{1}{V}_{1} ( ln\dfrac{{V}_{2}}{{V}_{1}} ) ) = ( ( - 1 ( 40 - 20 ) + 0 + ( - 1 \times 20 ( ln\dfrac{20}{40} ) ) = 620J$
