Help would be appreciated, thank you! Bolded are my answers..

a. 8, b. 4, c. 8pi, d. 2pi

 

2. What is the length of the path along the graph of y=sqrt(9-x^2) between x=0 and x=2?

What is the length of the path along the graph of y=sqrt(9-x^2) between x=0 and x=2?

 

dy/dx  =   (1/2) (9 - x^2)^(-1/2) ( -2x)  =  -x / ( 9 - x^2)^(1/2)

 

[dy/dx]^2  =  x^2 / [ 9 - x^2]

 

The arc length  is given by

 

2

∫      √ ( 1 + [dy/dx]^2  )  dx   =  

0

 

 

2         

∫   √ ( 1 +    x^2 / [ 9 - x^2]  ) dx   =

0

 

2

∫   √ ( 9  / [ 9 - x^2]  ) dx  =

0

 

 

    2

3  ∫   √ ( 1 / [ 9 - x^2]  ) dx  =

   0

 

let  x  =  3sin (θ)   →    x^2    =  9sin^2( θ)      

dx  =  3cos (θ) dθ

 

Change the limits of integration

when x  = 2               when x  =  0

2/3  = sin (θ)              0  = sin (θ)

θ = arcsin(2/3)           θ =  0

 

So  we have

 

   arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫  √ ( 1 / [ 9  -  9sin^2( θ) ] ) 3 cos ( θ) dθ   =

    0

 

 arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫ (1/3)  √ ( 1 / [ 1  -  sin^2( θ) ] )  3 cos ( θ) dθ   =

    0

 

 arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫  √ ( 1 / [ 1  -  sin^2( θ) ] ) cos ( θ) dθ   =

    0

 

 arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫   √ ( 1 / [cos^2 ( θ) ]  ) cos ( θ) dθ   =

    0

 

 arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫    ( 1 / [cos ( θ) ] ) cos ( θ) dθ   =

    0

 

 arcsin(2/3)

3   ∫    dθ   =

    0

 

          arcsin(2/3)

3 [ θ ]                       =     3 [  arcsin(2/3)  -  0 ]   =    3  arcsin(2/3)

             0

1. what is the length of the curve with parateric equtaions x=1-2cos(t), y=2-sin(t) from t=0 to tot=pi?

 

dx/dt = 2sin(t)    ....  [ dx/dt]^2  =  4sin^2(t)

dy/dt  = -cos(t).....    [dy/dt]^2  =  cos^2(t)

 

 

The arc length  is  found as

 

pi

∫   √ (  [ dx/dt]^2  + [ dy/dt]^2 ) dt   =

0

 

 

pi

∫   √ (  4sin^2(t)  + cos^2 (t) ) dt

0

 

 

pi

∫   √ (  4sin^2(t)  + 1 - sin^2(t) ) dt

0

 

 

pi

∫   √ (  3sin^2(t)  + 1 ) dt   ≈         4.84422

2

 ∫   √    ( dx/dt)^2  +  (dy/dt)^2  )   dt

0

 

2

 ∫   √  [ cos^2(t)  +  (ln (t + 1])^2  ] dt      ≈  1.91
