The finite element method for a strongly elliptic mixed boundary value problem is analyzed in the domain $\Omega $ whose boundary $\partial \Omega $ is formed by two circles $\Gamma _1$, $\Gamma _2$ with the same center $S_0$ and radii $R_1$, $R_2=R_1+\varrho $, where $\varrho \ll R_1$. On one circle the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition and on the other one the nonhomogeneous Neumann boundary condition are prescribed. Both possibilities for $u=0$ are considered. The standard finite elements satisfying the minimum angle condition are in this case inconvenient; thus triangles obeying only the maximum angle condition and narrow quadrilaterals are used. The restrictions of test functions on triangles are linear functions while on quadrilaterals they are four-node isoparametric functions. Both the effect of numerical integration and that of approximation of the boundary are analyzed. The rate of convergence $O(h)$ in the norm of the Sobolev space $H^1$ is proved under the following conditions: 1. the
