ANSWER:

Solution 17E In this problem we need to find the length of the curver(t) =The arc length of the curve r(t) from a to b is given by L = ...equation (1) where L denotes arc length.Step 1: Let x= y=Calculate the arc length of the curves for 0 t /2 dr= )+( dt ………….equation (2) =3(-sin t) =3(cos t)dr =+) dt =t +9 )dt =3 sint cost +) dt =3 (sint cos t) dt since [ +=1]
